METHOD
- In a bowl add the flour, sugar, yeast, salt, water and eggs and mix. When the dough begins to form, work it with your hands.
- After forming the dough, gradually add the butter and continue kneading. Knead until you obtain a smooth and non-sticky dough. Cover with cling film and transfer to the refrigerator for 10 hours.
- Once the time has passed, remove the dough from the fridge and transfer it to the lightly floured surface. Roll it out lightly with a rolling pin to form a rectangle. Fold one of the shorter sides inwards and then close with another side. Cover with a cloth and leave to rest for 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes, roll out the dough again with a rolling pin, always giving it a rectangular shape. Cover again with a cloth and leave to rest for another 5 minutes.
- After the second resting time, roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it forms a rectangle (about 1 cm thick), and cut the discs with a pastry cutter with a diameter of 10 cm.
- Transfer them to the baking tray covered with baking paper, cover them with a cloth and let them rise for 90 minutes.
- Brush the bombes with egg yolk + milk and transfer them to the oven. Bake at 175°C/347°F for 20 minutes.
- Fill them with the custard, decorate them with icing sugar and serve.
