650g plain flour1.5kg
275ml Greek style yogurt500g
4 medium eggs (3 for dough, 1 beaten for glaze)6 pack
200g caster sugar1kg
130g salted butter, melted250g
1 tsp baking powder200g
1 tsp vanilla extract38ml
Method
- Prepare the Dough
- In a large mixing bowl add all the ingredients and mix together until a dough is formed. The dough should be stick - add extra flour if you find the mixture too sticky to work with.
- Using the extra melted butter, rub some over your hands before breaking the dough into 20 equal sized pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Before rolling each ball rub melted butter over your hands each time.
- Place the balls of dough onto a greased / lined baking tray 5cm apart - you will need to split the balls into two batches cooking one batch at a time.
- Cooking
- Brush eat ball with beaten egg and place in the oven at 180 degree for 20 minutes. The Kurabie will be a light golden colour and slightly squishy in the middle. Place on a cooling rack to cool.
