Directions
- 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and softened butter until smooth and well combined.
- 2
Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk, then stir it into the egg mixture until fully incorporated.
- 3
Gradually add the flour, mixing until the dough is smooth, soft, and no longer sticks to your hands.
- 4
Grease a Bundt or ring pan generously with oil and pour in the dough, spreading it evenly.
- 5
Sprinkle a generous layer of granulated sugar over the surface of the dough.
- 6
Bake in a preheated oven at 350 °F (180 °C) for 35 to 40 minutes, until golden brown.
- 7
Test doneness by inserting a toothpick or fork into the center — it should come out clean.
💡 Chef's Tip
For extra fragrance, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or fresh lemon zest to the dough. Letting it rest 30 minutes before baking gives an even fluffier result.
