Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 500 g flour
  • 30 g fresh yeast (alternatively 1 1/2 packs of dry yeast)
  • 0.38 liters of milk
  • 50 g butter
  • 50 g sugar or sweetener
  • 1 egg(s)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 tbsp rum or some rum flavoring
  • some lemon(s) – zest, grated
  • Salt
  • e.g. vanilla sugar or vanilla flavoring
  • Fat for frying

Instructions

Working time approx. 50 minutes; Total time approx. 50 minutes

enough for about 20 pieces

If using fresh yeast, first make a Dampfl (proofing test or pre-dough) with 1/16 l milk, crumbled yeast, 1 teaspoon of sugar and flour. Then mix it with the remaining ingredients to form a dough. Alternatively, mix the flour with the dry yeast and the other ingredients to form a dough and beat well. Let the yeast dough rise. Roll out the fairly soft dough on a floured board until it is about the thickness of a finger and shape into Strauben (squares with two cuts in each). Cover and let rise again on a floured cloth. Place the risen Strauben with the top side down in the hot oil, turn after a few minutes and finish baking. Then carefully remove and let drain. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Makes approx. 20 Strauben. Tip: Fill with jam if desired.
