Here comes the cute Santa bread

Introduction:

"When my daughter was a child, at Christmas, her father and I would secretly put her favorite gifts into a big and beautiful Christmas sock. We did a good job of confidentiality, so that our daughter could believe that there was a Santa Claus in the world. But my daughter was a little suspicious. She asked Santa how he got in from the chimney and how he knew what kind of gifts children liked. A series of questions often shot at me like a barrage of bullets, which caught me off guard. At Christmas when her daughter was four years old, the kindergarten teachers had a lively and happy festival for them, and invited their parents to join them. When Santa Claus came to the classroom to divide the sugar, the children went up together and surrounded Santa Claus. The woman was too short to grab, so she pulled Santa's pants. As a result, she almost pulled Santa's pants down. Her daughter found that the old man was wearing pantyhose, which was the same as the teacher's,! Since then, Santa's "lies" have been seen through by her daughter. However, every year at Christmas, I hope I can dress up my home in a more festive atmosphere and ask for some gifts she likes,. Christmas is coming again. I've long wanted to make some Santa Claus bread for her to warm up the atmosphere in advance, but I only saw some pictures in the magazine without any specific prescription. I used my favorite 65 degree soup recipe and tried to make a few. I didn't expect to be highly praised by my daughter. It's very simple. My little partner might as well try to do it as well. "

Production steps:

Step 1: 1. Put all the ingredients except butter in the bread together and knead until the dough is smooth. Add butter and knead until the film comes out, and then ferment for the first time.

Step 2: 2. Divide the dough into 10 35g small dough and 5 30g small dough after exhausting. After rounding, relax for 15 minutes, roll a 35g small dough into an oval dough and use it as Santa's face.

Step 3: 3. Take a 30g small flour cake and roll it into a triangle like one. Fold the sharp part above and roll up the round part below to serve as Santa Claus's hat.

Step 4: 4. Take 3 g of the remaining dough and knead a small ball as the top of the hat. Then take 5 g and knead a small ball as the nose.

Step 5: 5. Take another 35 grams of small dough and roll it into an oval shape. Fold it in half.

Step 6: 6. Cut into thin strips with a knife and twist each strip into a spiral shape.

Step 7: 7. Just put all of them together, put them on the baking tray for secondary fermentation, and brush them with the egg liquid first.

Step 8: 8. Add appropriate amount of Monascus powder to the remaining egg liquid to make it red. Brush Santa's hat and nose red with red egg liquid. Preheat the oven at 210 ℃ and bake for 10 minutes. Take out and let cool.

Step 9: 9. Sift the ball and beard of the hat with powdered sugar, and then draw the eyes with melted chocolate.

Materials required:

High flour: 270g

Fine granulated sugar: 50g

65 degree soup: 80g

Cream: 55g

Milk: 35g

Eggs: 35g

Salt: 2G

Butter: 28g

Yeast: 6 g

Note: 1. The bread made by this recipe is very soft. It's my favorite recipe. It can make five Santas at a time. I don't like to make so many. The rest can be made into cream rolls. Here it is. 2. It should be noted that Santa's facial features should be more dense, otherwise after two rounds and then baking, the facial features will be deformed. 3. I don't like to use pigment, so I use egg liquid and Monascus powder to make it red. The color depends on the depth of the color I like. 4. In the process of baking, when the color of the hat and nose is good, cover it with tin foil, but don't cover it to the beard. When the beard is good, cover it with tin foil.
