Viennese Pretzel with Almonds

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 8.8 oz
Starch film - 1.8 oz
Milk - 8 tablespoons
Sugar - 7.8 oz
Salt - a pinch
Butter - 3.5 oz
Farm fresh eggs - 2 pieces
Vanilla salt - 0.9 oz
Ground Almonds - 7.1 oz
Powdered Sugar - 3.5 oz
Chopped almonds - 2.6 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Sift the flour into a mound with the starch and baking powder, making a well in the center. Add 4 tablespoons of milk, 120 g of sugar, and salt into the well. Cut the butter into cubes, place it on the flour, and quickly knead into a smooth dough by hand. Let it rest for 30 minutes, covered with a napkin.

Step 2

Prepare the filling. Beat the eggs with the remaining sugar and vanilla sugar. Gradually mix in the ground almonds. Add a little milk until a homogeneous creamy mixture is formed.

Step 3

Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle of 50x60 cm, spread the almond mixture on top, and roll it up from the long side. Shape it into a ring on a greased baking tray, or place it in a bundt pan. Bake the pretzel in a preheated oven at 392°F for 1 hour.

Step 4

Prepare the glaze. Dissolve the powdered sugar with 2 tablespoons of hot water. Once the pretzel has cooled, cover it with the glaze and sprinkle with almond flakes or finely chopped almonds.
