French cream brioches: you can make them in five minutes!

Ingredients

We need:

350 g flour (2 cups plus 3 tablespoons); 10 g baking powder (two teaspoons) 180 g plain yogurt (about 3/4 cup); three tablespoons of unrefined sugar; a tablespoon of vanilla extract; three tablespoons of oil; an egg.

For the filling: 225 g Greek yogurt (1 cup); three tablespoons of unrefined sugar; three tablespoons of cornstarch; an egg; chocolate chips.

Preparation

Pour 350 grams of flour into a bowl, then add 10 grams of baking powder and mix with a hand whisk, then add 180 grams of plain yogurt, three tablespoons of brown sugar, a pinch of salt, a tablespoon of vanilla extract, three tablespoons of oil and an egg.

Mix everything with a spoon and then knead with your hands. Once you have obtained a dough that is not too smooth, you dedicate yourself to the filling.

Take 225 grams of Greek yogurt, add three tablespoons of brown sugar and the same amount of cornstarch; Then we add a whole egg and then mix everything with a spoon until it has the consistency of a cream.

Now we recover the dough prepared at the beginning, flour it and knead it with a rolling pin. Once you have a fairly thin sheet, cover it three-quarters with the yogurt cream and then sprinkle small nuggets or chocolate chips (to taste) on top.

Now we fold the dough on itself first on one side and then on the other, then we cut it into many “cannoli” which we then twist on themselves turning the ends on opposite sides with our hands.

The next step is to put our croissants in the oven at 180 degrees for twelve minutes.

After that, enjoy!
