Take note
Make sure to handle the dough gently to preserve its fluffy texture. Be careful not to overfill the cruffins, as they might burst in the oven. And remember, these savory delights are highly addictive!

1

Prepare the dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 and a half teaspoons of instant yeast. Mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of warm milk, 1/4 cup of melted butter, and 2 eggs. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until a sticky dough forms.

2

Let it rise

Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size. Meanwhile, prepare your preferred savory filling. It can be a combination of grated cheese, chopped herbs, cooked bacon, or any other savory ingredients you fancy!

3

Form the cruffins

Gently deflate the risen dough and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Spread a thin layer of your chosen filling evenly over the dough. Starting from one long side, tightly roll up the dough into a log.

4

Cut and shape

Using a sharp knife, cut the log crosswise into equal-sized rounds, about 1 inch thick. Take each round and gently twist it, then place it in a greased muffin tin. Repeat with the remaining rounds. Cover the tin with the kitchen towel and let the cruffins rest for another 30 minutes to rise slightly.

5

Bake to perfection

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once the cruffins have risen, place them in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning!

Enjoy your savory cruffins

Remove the cruffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for a few minutes. Gently transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve them warm or at room temperature, and savor each flavor-packed bite! They're perfect for brunch, a midday snack, or any time you're craving a savory treat.
