👨🍳 Instruções
- 1
For the dough: In a small bowl, dissolve yeast and 1 tsp of sugar in lukewarm milk. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 2
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for better dough consistency. - 3
Pour the yeast mixture and beaten eggs into the well. Gradually mix in the softened butter until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. - 4
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
⏱️ 1.5 hours💡 Dicas Profissionais: A slightly warm oven (turned off) is a good place for dough to rise. - 5
For the filling: In a bowl, combine ground walnuts, brown sugar, honey, and cinnamon. Mix well.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: If the filling seems too dry, add a tablespoon of warm water or milk. - 6
Punch down the risen dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Aim for a rectangle approximately 12x18 inches. - 7
Spread the walnut filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border along one long edge.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Ensure the filling is spread thinly and evenly to avoid tearing the dough. - 8
Starting from the long edge with the filling, tightly roll up the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.
💡 Dicas Profissionais: Roll tightly to ensure a good spiral in the finished potica. - 9
Carefully place the rolled dough into a greased bundt pan or a ring mold, seam-side down. You may need to gently shape it to fit.

Cover the potica and let it rise again for 30-45 minutes.
⏱️ 45 minutes - 11
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Whisk together egg yolk and milk for the egg wash.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 12
Brush the top of the potica with the egg wash. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
⏱️ 50 minutes💡 Dicas Profissionais: If the top starts to brown too quickly, loosely tent with foil. - 13
Let the potica cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
⏱️ 15 minutes
💡 Dicas Profissionais
