Slovenska Potica s Skuto in Rozicami
Slovenian Cottage Cheese and Rosehip Potica

👨🍳 Οδηγίες
- 1
Activate yeast: In a small bowl, combine lukewarm milk, 1 tsp sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- 2
Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, egg yolks, and melted butter. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
- 3
Knead the dough: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- 4
Prepare the filling: While the dough rises, combine cottage cheese, sugar, egg yolks, vanilla extract, chopped rosehips, and lemon zest in a bowl. Mix well.
- 5
Assemble the Potica: Punch down the risen dough and turn it onto a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a large rectangle, approximately 1/4 inch thick. Spread the cottage cheese and rosehip filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border on the edges.
- 6
Roll up the Potica: Starting from one of the longer sides, carefully roll up the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
- 7
Bake: Grease a traditional Potica mold or a Bundt pan. Place the rolled dough seam-side down in the prepared mold. Cover loosely and let rest for another 20 minutes.
- 8
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush the Potica with egg wash. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. If it browns too quickly, loosely tent with foil.
- 9
Cool: Let the Potica cool in the mold for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
