Equipment

  • egg rings, greased with butter

Ingredients

  • 40 g buckwheat flour I didn't have buckwheat so I used Rye flour instead
  • 125 g strong white plain flour
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 7 g easy-blend dried yeast
  • 150 ml crème fraîche
  • 175 ml whole milk
  • 2 medium eggs separated
  • 25 g butter plus more for greasing

Instructions

  • Mix first four ingredients together.
  • Slightly warm the creme fraiche and milk, but not so hot that it will kill the yeast.
  • Mix this in with the rest.
  • Add the eggs.
  • Mix well and leave for at least an hour to rise, covered with a damp tea towel.
  • Then cook in rings, using a packet made from tin foil to keep them warm until all of them are cooked.
