Ingredients for 12 servings:

  • 200 g margarine
  • 1 cube of yeast
  • 1 egg(s)
  • 50 ml milk
  • 200 g sugar

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 10 minutes

This recipe is a super-quick alternative to classic yeast dough that’s guaranteed to work every time! Simply knead the flour, margarine, egg, and yeast dissolved in lukewarm milk (about two-thirds of the cube; the whole amount is a bit too much) into a ball (it will be more or less dry or sticky depending on the amount of milk, it doesn’t matter). Place the whole thing in a bucket filled with lukewarm water. Depending on the water temperature, it takes about a quarter of an hour, then the dough rises and floats to the surface. Remove it. If you’re making a cake, knead it with the sugar. I use about two-thirds of the dough for a large baking sheet so the base isn’t too thick (sprinkle it with a little more flour before rolling it out). If you omit the sugar, the dough is also perfect for pizza, tarte flambée, etc. You won’t taste any difference from classic yeast dough, but you’ll save the long rising time!
