Serbian Kiflice

Kiflice


For the starter: Dissolve 40 g fresh yeast in 50 ml water and 50 ml milk on room temperature, 1 tsp sugar and 1/2 tsp salt in a cup (volume of the cup should be 0.5 l) and leave in warm place to rise until it fills the cup completely.

Make the dough: Sift 800 g flour, 50 ml oil, 200 ml water, 200 ml milk and 1 Tbsp sugar. Knead it to smooth and soft dough and leave covered in a warm place to double it's volume.

Filling 1: mix together 150 g white cheese, 1 tsp sour cream and 1 small egg.

Filling 2: jam.

Filling 3: Nutella@Café Chocolada.






























Dough for kiflice

When the dough has risen, knead it little more, form a ball and cut it to 8 equal pieces.
Each part knead a little bit and shape into ball. Flatten each ball to 5 mm thickness. Make sure you follow exact order of making balls.

Make mixture of 2 Tbsp melted margarine (or even better pork fat) and 1 egg yolk. Take 4 flattened dough pieces and divide mass evenly on top of them.
Spread it, but not all the way to the border, just over middle part.

  2. Super i slike i prezentacija!
    Gotovo isto pravimo, samo ja stavim kockice margarina na kiflice umjesto izmedju, ne znam da li to ista mjenja.

    Great looking rolls, wonderful presentation!:)

  8. I am on the verge of tears! I am so happy I found your site. It is impossible to get a correct recipe from the old Yugo ladies. If you speak to five of them, you get five versions. I have been trying for years to find the perfect Kiflice recipe. I finally came up with my own, but it never compared to the one a lady from Serbia makes. Hers are perfect. After I saw your recipe, I knew it was the one. Thank you so much!! I have had the wonderful pleasure of exploring your recipe blog. I am forever a fan. P.S. Now I will send you on a mission to find a recipe for these cookies called "Pdobranci." This is another secret recipe I've been trying to find. xoxoxo

  13. Hi :) Just wondering... those tiny cubes of margarine to be placed between kiflice on baking pan, what's the purpose? (sorry about such a question, I'm just one of them people who need to know the reasons :))
    Your Klifice look so delicious that my mouth are already watering :)
