Yield: 12
Ingredients: 150 ml lukewarm milk; 20 g fresh yeast; 80 g granulated sugar; 400 g semi-coarse or all-purpose flour; 80 g softened butter; 1 egg; a pinch of salt; 200 g ground poppy seeds; 100 g sugar; ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon; zest of 1 lemon (grated); 150 ml milk; 500 g low-fat curd cheese (tvaroh); juice of ½ lemon; 20 g vanilla pudding powder; 1 egg yolk; 120 g sugar; 150 g all-purpose flour; 80 g powdered sugar; 80 g butter; 8 g vanilla sugar; 150 g apricot jam

Dough: In slightly lukewarm milk dissolve the yeast with a teaspoon of sugar and let the starter rise for 10 min. In a large bowl mix the starter with the remaining ingredients for the dough and work by hand or in a mixer until smooth and elastic. Cover with a cloth and leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in volume (approx. 1 hour).

Poppy seed filling: In a saucepan mix the poppy seeds, sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest and milk. Heat and stir until the ingredients combine, then let cool.

Curd filling: In a bowl combine the curd, lemon juice, pudding powder, egg yolk and sugar. Store in the refrigerator.

Crumble: Quickly rub all the ingredients together with your fingers until a crumb forms.

Assembling the cake: Roll the risen dough out onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread first the curd filling, then the poppy seed filling. Brush with apricot jam and sprinkle with the crumble.

Baking: Bake in an oven preheated to 180 °C for 30–40 min, until the cake turns golden. After taking out of the oven let cool slightly, then cut into portions.
