Directions

The cruffin is a delightful pastry that perfectly marries two beloved baked goods: the flaky, buttery croissant and the soft, sweet muffin. Originating in San Francisco, the cruffin was created as a playful twist on traditional pastries, and it quickly became a viral sensation due to its irresistible combination of textures and flavors.

In this recipe I use dried fruits soaked in rum, thanks to this soaking they seep out all the aromas of this noble drink with a chocolate flavor.
I often make cruffin for Easter; it has become a tradition and a wonderful treat for family and friends.

Steps

1
Done

preparation of raisins, dried cranberries and cherries

1. In a small bowl, soak the raisins, dried cranberries and cherries in rum for at least 1 hour.

Done

The dough

1. Take a large container, break the eggs into it, add sugar, vanilla and salt, beat well with a whisk until the sugar is almost dissolved.
2. Add 50 ml of melted butter and mix.
3. Add 120 ml of warm milk and 7 grams of dry yeast.
4. Add flour, knead the dough.
5. Cover the dough with cling film and leave to rest for 1 hour. The dough should increase in volume.

preparing the Cruffin

1. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 3-4 mm. Evenly grease the dough with soft butter (100 g).
2. Remove raisins, dry cranberries and dry cherries from the rum and dry with a towel.
3. Evenly distribute raisins, dry cranberries and dry cherries over the rolled out dough. You can also add crushed almonds.
4. Roll the dough into a roll and make a cut in the middle along the entire roll.
5. Roll the halves of the roll cut lengthwise into two curls again and place one on top of the other, forming a cruffin.
6. Cover the craffin baking pan with parchment paper and transfer the craffin into it.
7. Cover the cruffin pan with cling film and let rest for 30 minutes.
8. Remove the film and place in a preheated oven at 320°F (160°C). Bake for 40-50 minutes.
9. Check the readiness of the craffin with a toothpick; if it comes out of the craffin dry, the craffin is ready.
10. Let the cruffin cool completely.
11. You can simply brush the top of the cruffin with honey and sprinkle with powdered sugar, but I like to top the cruffin with icing.

making glaze for craffin

1. Pour 1.5 teaspoons of gelatin into a bowl, add 2 tablespoons of warm water, mix, wait until the gelatin swells.
2. Pour 4 tablespoons of water into a saucepan, add 180 grams of sugar, stir, and place on medium heat.
3. Bring the syrup to a boil and the sugar is completely dissolved, remove from heat and add the swollen gelatin to it. Mix well.
4. Beat the hot syrup with gelatin with a mixer until the desired thickness.
5 Add lemon juice and continue beating with a mixer until thick (approximately 5 minutes).
6. Cover the craffin with glaze and sprinkle with almond petals. Let the glaze harden at room temperature.

Bon appetit!
