How to make crab apple cake

Step 1

Mix the dough and pastry and divide them equally into 10 copies. Red bean paste is 7 grams each, 10 pieces are needed.

Step 2

Roll it up once as shown in the picture, wrap the pastry in the oil skin, seal it tightly, press it flat, roll it into a long tongue line, and roll it up.

Step 3

The second rolling is different from the puff pastry we made in the past. Pay attention to the picture. First pick up the roll made for the first time, flatten it, roll it out long, fold it first, and fold the left side to one third. Fold the right side over again.

Step 4

Roll it out appropriately.

Step 5

Spread some egg white around it for better adhesion when breading, and put the bean paste on it.

Step 6

Shape each side into a pentagon.

Step 7

Prepare a pair of sharp and slender scissors and cut all five sides parallel.

Step 8

As shown in the picture, first make a cut at the parallel side.

Step 9

The second cut should be slightly diagonally downward.

Step 10

The third cut is at the corner of the bottom dough.

Step 11

Dip the egg white into the chopsticks and apply it on the petals. In the end, I applied it directly with my hands.

Step 12

Pick up a petal and flip it upwards, use chopsticks to press the top down slightly to secure it.

Step 13

Make five skateboards at a time, leaving just enough room for the tip of the chopsticks to leave the inlaid stamens. Make the remaining nine.

Step 14

The dough cut out just now is dyed with pigment or red yeast rice powder and decorated in the middle of the crab apple cake. Or there is grass at homeFor berry jam, you can put some jam on it.

Step 15

The red dough is embedded in the stamens to complete the final step.

Step 16

The traditional crabapple cake is usually fried. I'm not good at heat, so I improved this oven version. Friends who want to make crispy cakes should read this section.

Step 17

There needs to be more oil and the fire must be low. Use a spoon to gently pour the oil on the pastry. The whole journey takes about two minutes.

Step 18

Oven version: 180 degrees, middle level 25-30 minutes. Cover with tin foil throughout. Begonia cake cooking techniques
