Traditional fluffy cozonac recipe with walnut
A traditional fluffy cozonac recipe with walnuts I found on Farfuriacolorata.ro, and you only have to respect the ingredients and steps to prepare the dessert.
Ingredients dough
- 1 kg flour
- 50 grams of fresh yeast
- 250 grams of sugar
- 3-4 sachets vaninilated sugar
- 500 ml milk
- 100 ml oil
- 5 yolks
- Salt
- Lemon essence and shaved peel from a lemon
Filling ingredients
- 400 grams of walnut
- 5 whites
- 5 tablespoons of sugar
- 3 tablespoons cocoa
- Optional shit and/or raisins
Method of preparation
The first and first time, sift the flour three times, in a large and spacious vessel. Then make a hole in the middle of the vessel. On the fire, put the milk along with the sugar and vaniny sugar to warm, so not to boil. Dissolve the yeast in a few tablespoons of the heated milk and place it in the flour, and then cover with a little flour and wait 10 minutes.
Separately, rub the yolks with the salt, put the lemon peel and add the composition in the flour bowl, along with the rest of the milk. Mix the composition with your hands and mix well. The recipe then says to pour the oil into a thin thread and continue the kneading. From time to time we pour oil. If necessary pour more than 100 ml.
The ideal kneading time is 30 minutes. If you do not have patience you can do it 15 minutes but not less. Afterwards, cover the vessel and leave it in the heat, to the end.
As the dough is fluttering, beat the foam whites with the sugar, put the walnut, cocoa powder and mix well. The walnut core can be in larger pieces or chopped so that the cozonac filling is finer.
The dough should be left to rise for an hour and a half or two. Then it is divided into two balls, which in turn are divided into two.
Each dough ball spreads on an oil -greased countertop and the filling is added. Then run each sheet, then braid two. Put in trays lined with baking paper and leave to rise. Before we put the trays in the oven, grease the dough with egg yolk and sprinkle sugar.
Bake over medium heat to high the first 15 minutes, then leave the heat smaller. The baking time is about an hour.

After the mayona doubles its volume, we put it over the flour. Add the egg yolks, lemon, orange and warm milk in which we dissolved the sugar and added vanilla.
