Preparation of Bratislava cones:
To prepare the filling you need to add milk to the poppy mass, mix. For the dough, pour yeast and sugar into warm milk (up to 30 degrees Celsius), stir. Grate
cold butter on a coarse grater into the dough, create a crumb. Add sour cream, salt and vanilla sugar, pour in flour and knead the dough. Knead
the dough until elastic and not sticky
.
Divide the dough into 2 equal parts and leave under a towel. In the meantime prepare the filling, add sugar, vanilla sugar, chopped walnuts and proteins to the poppyseed
mixture, stir the poppyseed mixture until homogeneous
.
Add the jam to the poppyseed filling, pressing it in with a fork.
Pour flour on the table and roll out the dough into a large round layer 2-3 mm thick. Divide the circle into 16 triangles. Put stuffing in the thickest part of each triangle.
Wrap the filling inside the dough: from the thick base to the thin end. Transfer each bagel to a baking tray, smear with egg yolk diluted with water.
Make bagels from the second part of the dough in the same way. Bake the bagels at 190 degrees for 17 minutes.
You can make bagels larger, then you need to divide the layer into 12 triangles. You get flavorful soft bagels with a juicy filling.
