This bread, along with Walnut Bread, are typically the most popular desserts Romanians dress in their Christmas or Easter time table. The dough and ways to allow it to be is equivalent to for that Walnut Bread (so for additional pictures, go to the Walnut Bread publish ), only the poppy seed filling is a little challenging. This is because I had been aiming in a smooth paste, that doesn’t have crunchy seeds inside it, and so i created this (a little complicated, but worthwhile) way to help make the filling.
Cozonacul cu mac, ca i cel cu nuc, sunt nelipsite de pe masa de Crciun sau Pate a romnilor, aa c nu puteau s lipseasc nici de pe blogul meu, nu? Aluatul e la fel ca cel pentru cozonacul cu nuc (aa c, dac dorii s vedei mai multe poze, am pus la cozonacul cu nuc ), doar c umplutura cu mac necesit puin efort. Vroiam s fac o umplutur care s fie o past moale, fr semine zgrunuroase, aa c am gsit modalitatea asta (puin complicat, dar merit efortul) de-a o face.
