How much exactly is “1 pack of dry yeast”

[@sarahamo9172]

Hello. Can you make the sparkling without smearing all the chocolate on top of the roll ?? I'd love to have an answer, thank you

[@zote8602]

Make some simple syrup and basically drown the loaf in it

[@sarahamo9172]

@@zote8602 👏 thank you .

[@zote8602]

@@sarahamo9172 if you plan on actually making it, don't just drown it please. Just brush in some of the simple syrup the moment it comes out of the oven

Recipe doesn't work

[@killerkali2007]

It didn't work for you, seems fairly simple..what was it missing? I don't want to waste ingredients for nothing

[@kristenwals]

This is almost identical to the babka recipe in the cookbook “a good bake”. I found the recipe to be waaaay too wet . I’m guessing too much milk and possibly not enough eggs .

@Food and Wine This is not babka. At least not original babka from Poland. First of all - there two major types of dough: 1. with baking powder - dough is more moist to the point that rolling isn't possible. Classic example is sandy babka (babka piaskowa), that requires a bit of potato flour (or potato starch); 2. with fresh yeast - this dough is rollable, but it doesn't rise for a long time and has more sugar and more flavoured oils (usually almonds or alcohol or orange or lemon or cinnamon or vanilla) and additions like raisins. Classic example is Easter babka (Babka wielkanocna). It's basically 'must bake' cake at Easter time in Poland. Second thing is that babka is always baked in round baking tray - it looks like upside-down half-cone with wavy sides. There are two popular types of this tray: 1. with chimney in the center. Germans use that too for their Gugelhupf cake, 2. without chimney - this one is very similar to French brioche à tête (parisiene) baking tray. Anyway type "babka wielkanocna" in Google, you'll see the difference.

this is povitica not babka

[@bigbrain296]

Looks terrible tbh. The dough is under risen for sure. Trying to cram all that into one loaf didn't allow for a proper rise.

[@baboon_baboon_baboon]

This is probably the best recipe I’ve found so far. Most the other recipes I’ve found are dry babkas. This is the only one with the chewy moist looking inside

[@getoffmydarnlawn]

Oof, too much. Americans love to turn everything they eat into candy or fried cheese. Just get some canned crescent rolls and a tub of frosting and call it a day.

[@kaljsdlksjfd3286]

The most annoying music ive ever heard

[@zote8602]

This isn't a traditional babka recipe at all wtf

[@sarahamo9172]

OK....

[@m3lodr4matic]

They never said it is a traditional one. Calm down

[@baboon_baboon_baboon]

What’s traditional one? The other recipes I’ve found are really dry. This is the only moist chewy looking one I found

[@kidkong637]

Not digging the chocolate covering.
