Cupbread from Madrid

Olga my friend from from Madrid gave me this idea making bread in a cupcake mould. She calls it cupbread. I have always wanted to make bread like her but did not dare to until now. You see,  I consider her the best baker of Madrid if not of Spain! I hope she likes my cupbread. See for yourself at Cocinando con Kisa. 

Cupbread with Poppy Seeds

325g of bread flour

1 egg

130g of lukewarm water

8g of salt

10g of sugar

25g of olive oil

15g of fresh yeast

olive oil for brushing and some poppy seeds

The recipe above I actually did not follow down to a tee because I did not have fresh yeast so the luke warm water I use for a packet of dry yeast instead. Kneaded everything together for 5 minutes and let the dough rise for an hour or until double in size.

Spread the dough into a rectangle and cut into strips that are slightly tapered at the end.

Brush strips with olive oil, sprinkle poppy seeds and roll to a cone. 

Put in muffin pan and let rise for an hour in a warm place and then bake in a 350F oven for 18 to 20 minutes.

Serve warm if you wish for they are really good with butter.

Here's a good looking one for you.

Enjoy!
