300x600
- 1 and 1/4 cups warm milk 105-115 F
- 2 and 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 4 and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, divided + up to 1/8 cup
extra for kneading - 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 3/4 cup bread crumbs for coating the bread
- 1/4 cup evaporated milk
For the Spanish Bread Filling
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup` bread crumbs
- 1/3 cup butter
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup evaporated milk
- In a mixing bowl, combine milk and yeast. Let stand for 5
minutes or until foamy. Add the eggs, sugar, oil and salt. Stir everything with
a wooden spoon. Add 4 cups of flour, one cup at a time while stirring. The
mixture will turn into a shaggy dough. - Sprinkle just enough of the remaining 1/2 cup of flour and
keep stirring until the dough gathers in the center. Turn the dough over on a
floured board and knead it until it is smooth and elastic, about 6-10 minutes.
As you knead, dust your hands and your board as needed to help with the
stickiness. You may need to use up to 1/8 cup of additional flour. - Shape the dough into a ball and place it a bowl. Cover and
let rise for 1 and 1/2 hours, or until the size is doubled. You can make the
filling at this point. - Gently punch the dough down and divide it into 18-20
portions. Using a small rolling pin or your hands, flatten each portion into an
oval that is about the size of your hands. Spread about a tablespoon of the
filling across the surface of the dough and roll it into a log. Repeat with all
the other portions. Arrange the rolls in a large baking tray that is greased or
lined with parchment paper. Brush evaporated milk on each of the rolls and dip
them in breadcrumbs. Cover them loosely with plastic wrap and let them rise for
an hour. - Preheat the oven to 350 F. Bake the Spanish bread for 15-20
minutes, or until the rolls are lightly golden.
- Heat the butter in a small saucepan until it is bubbly. Add
the flour and the breadcrumbs and stir the mixture vigorously with a wire whisk
for a few seconds. This is a grainy mixture at this point. Immediately add the
milk and keep stirring until the mixture loosens up a bit. Stir for 30 seconds
more and turn off heat. Stir in the sugar well until it is incorporated. Set
aside to cool. This mixture is a chunky paste.
