Cooking method

1) * I took the recipe for making liquid yeast on banana peel from Lyudmila: Liquid yeast
I grew liquid yeast for 5 days. In a glass jar, I put the chopped peel of 1 medium banana, poured 250 ml of water, closed the lid, put it by the battery. 2 times a day, shook it and opened the lid.
2) Pre-enzyme:
Before kneading the dough - for 6 hours in 40 grams of banana Sourdough I poured 35 grams of whole wheat flour, left it warm and then kneaded the dough .. (I kneaded more, several recipes at once, so there is more pre-enzyme in the photo)
3)** I prepared the milk in advance, again on the advice of Lyudmila, I quote: "I prepared the milk in a special way - ** tempered it, that is, I first brought it to a boil, and then kept it at 90 * C for 30 minutes. About this method Luda wrote in her LJ. Baking on tempered milk is of high quality, it is stored for a long time and does not get stale. This is due to the fact that milk contains substances - thiols, which inhibit the formation of gluten. When keeping milk at 90 * C for 30 minutes, thiols are destroyed, and the dough is enriched with amino acids, sugars, proteins and fats contained in milk. "
I brought it to a boil, then poured it into a thermos, held it for 30 minutes, then cooled it to warm.
4) While the milk is cooling, rinse the cherries and soak them in warm water.
5)Dough kneading:
Mix warm milk and pre-enzyme, stir and add the rest of the ingredients (except 50 grams of flour - leave to knead), knead the dough, cover with foil, leave to "rest" for 30 minutes.
6) Melt the butter over low heat or steam.
Mix sugar and cinnamon separately in a bowl.
Prepare the mold (I have a detachable mold 22 cm in diameter), grease it with butter and sprinkle it with a little flour.
Then, pinching off the pieces from the dough, roll them into balls the size of a walnut.
Put 3-5 cherries in each and roll the dough into balls again.
Dip the balls of dough in melted butter, then in the cinnamon sugar mixture and immediately place in the mold.
I managed to lay out the dough in one layer. The balls can be laid out in several layers, then the proofing and baking time will vary ...
7) After spreading the dough, cover the mold with a film and leave it warm until it doubles in size (1.5 hours have passed for me).
I usually let it stand in the oven at a minimum temperature of ~ 40 degrees.
8 ) I baked bread in the oven preheated to 220 for 10 minutes, then reduced it to 180 and another 45 minutes.
After baking, I immediately took the bread out of the mold and left it to cool on the wire rack until morning (I baked it in the evening).

Note

Sweet pastries are one of the best desserts imaginable.And an intricate cake and a yeast dough pie with a sweet filling - both are not ashamed to be served with tea, both during an evening home meal and for a holiday.
Despite the disadvantages, sweets also bring benefits, being a source of carbohydrates, energy, so necessary for children and adults.

So see:
Brown (unrefined, unrefined) sugar, which by and large is condensed and evaporated juice of sugar cane,
possesses a bright aroma, unique taste and unusual color. It contains a number of useful trace elements - calcium, phosphorus, iron, etc.
The darker the cane sugar, the more residual molasses (cane molasses) it contains, and therefore the more valuable nutrients.
Scientific research by the International Sugar Organization has shown that, within the limits prescribed by doctors, sugar is beneficial and, in principle, necessary for the body.
First, eating sugar wisely helps you burn off excess weight (with the minimum required activity and control of calorie intake, of course).
Also, sugar is a vital substance for the body's activity: it is the work of the nervous system, and the prevention of atherosclerosis.
Sucrose in minimal amounts regulates the activity of the liver and gastrointestinal tract.
I can't even call such a useful product a sweet poison. Therefore, brown sugar has become a constant companion of the diet of people who care about their health.
The unusual taste and aroma of brown sugar makes the bread unforgettably tasty.
Cherry not only tastes good, but also has many health benefits.

It has an inexhaustible source of vitamins and minerals and is in no way inferior in quality to fresh cherries.
Its natural carbohydrates are able to nourish the body with energy for quite a long time, quenching thirst and appetite.
Cherry is such a vitamin product, the beneficial properties of which are perfectly preserved not only fresh.
Cherries are dried, frozen and canned. But in whatever form it is served to the table, the berry is considered a dietary product.
Cherry calories and carbohydrates are not retained in the body, so it is almost impossible to get fat from eating this berry on the menu.

The health benefits of cinnamon are enormous. It helps to improve digestion, awakens appetite, strengthens the stomach.
