Instructions to make Roscón de reyes. (Three kings cake):
- Mix sugar and softened butter together. Add whisked eggs, oil, lemon and orange rind, orange blossom and one cup of milk.
- The second cup of milk can be warmed slightly and mixed with the yeast to activate. Add to the rest of ingredients. You will get quite a sloppy mixture.
- Add flour to mixture and when mixed well knead on a worktop for a few minutes until firm and elastic.
- Leave to rest covered with a cloth (or lid) for 1-2hours near a warm area like radiator or a warmish oven. Dough needs to raise to more than double its volume.
- Knead again on the table and give the shape of a huge doughnut with a large hole. Should be able to get 3 units.
- Place in a lined or oiled oven tray where they need to rest to raise again. I prefer decorating before they are proved so that I don't knock the air out.
- Once raised brush them with egg.
- Bake on a medium oven. I chose 160 C (fan) for about 20-30 minutes or until golden. If I bake 2 together I may switch shelves at 14 minutes to allow them to bake more evenly.
- Sprinkle with sugar as you get them out of the oven
