Kifli are traditional Transcarpathian pastries that resemble a miniature bagel. The pastry is based on a light shortcrust pastry made from just three ingredients, as well as a filling.

One of the culinary blogs (voloshkove.pole) published a recipe for Zakarpattia kifli with filling and powdered sugar on Instagram. It is not recommended to add baking powder or soda to the dough, as it is already tender and crumbly due to the butter content.

Ingredients:

  • flour - 450 g
  • sour cream - 170 g
  • butter - 200 g

For the filling, any jam or jam, poppy seeds, cottage cheese, nuts, etc. are suitable.

Method of preparation:

1. To prepare the dough, mix the butter at room temperature with sour cream.

2. Stirring the resulting mass, gradually add flour. Knead the dough - it is soft and quite elastic. It should be wrapped in a ball, then in plastic wrap and left in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

3. Roll out the chilled dough thinly and cut it into squares.

4. Put the filling on each square and roll it up.

5. Bake at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes until light golden brown.

6. Sprinkle the finished kifli with powdered sugar. It's ready!
