Total time: 20 min
Yield: 12
Ingredients: 500 g semi-coarse flour; 100 g granulated sugar; 100 g butter (melted and slightly cooled); 2 egg yolks; 30 g fresh yeast; 250 ml milk (lukewarm); 1 packet vanilla sugar; 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest; 250 g soft quark (or quark filling to taste); 1 egg for brushing; powdered sugar for dusting

Preparation procedure

Dough preparation Put lukewarm milk into the bowl of the bread machine, crumble the yeast and add a teaspoon of granulated sugar. Let the yeast proof for 5–10 minutes. Add the sifted flour, both sugars, vanilla sugar, lemon zest, egg yolks and the melted butter. Turn on the dough rising program and let the machine work (approximately 60–70 minutes including kneading and the first rise).
Shaping the crescents Turn the finished dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Divide it into 12–15 equally sized pieces. Roll each piece into an oval sheet, place a tablespoon of quark in the middle and roll the crescent tightly. Shape the pointed ends. Place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, let rise in a warm place for another 20–30 minutes.
Baking Preheat the oven to 180 °C (fan 160 °C). Brush the crescents with beaten egg and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden.
Finishing After removing from the oven, let cool briefly, then sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve fresh, ideally within two hours of baking.
