Zubereitung Bienenstich
- Zerbrösle die Hefe Würfel und löse sie mit einem Schneebesen in lauwarmer Mandelmilch auf. Gib die Hefe-Mandelmilch Mischung in eine Schüssel und verarbeite sie mit Mehl, Xucker, Butter und einer Prise Salz zu einem glatten Teig. Knete den Teig dann mit deinen Händen zu einer Kugel. Lass die Teigkugel bedeckt bei Zimmertemperatur 30 Min. gehen.
- Knete den Teig nochmal auf einer bemehlten Arbeitsfläche und rolle ihn auf einem gefetteten Backblech aus. Steche ihn nun mit einer Gabel ein und lass ihn nochmal 30 Min. gehen.
- Mandel-Belag: Koche Butter, Xucker, Sahne und Ahornsirup in einem Topf auf und rühre die Mandelblättchen unter. Verteile die Masse nach dem Abkühlen auf dem Hefeteig. Backe ihn im vorgeheizten Backofen bei 200 Grad Ober-/Unterhitze ca. 20 Min. und lass ihn auf einem Kuchenrost abkühlen.
- Pudding-Creme: Vanillepudding nach Packungsanleitung zubereiten und abkühlen lassen. Rühre die weiche Butter mit dem Mixer weiß-cremig und hebe den kalten Pudding löffelweise unter.
- Das abgekühlte Gebäck vierteln und dann waagerecht schneiden. Verteile die Buttercreme auf den unteren Hälften und lege die anderen Hälften darauf. Drücke sie leicht an.
Tipp: Stelle die Stücke für 30 Min. in den Kühlschrank, damit die Buttercreme fest wird und sich der Bienenstich gut schneiden lässt.
Guten Appetit!
Preparation bee sting
- Crumble the yeast cubes and dissolve them in lukewarm almond milk with a whisk. Put the yeast-almond milk mixture in a bowl and knead it with flour, sugar, butter and a pinch of salt to form a smooth dough. Then use your hands to knead the dough into a ball. Let the ball of dough rise, covered, at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Knead the dough again on a floured work surface and roll it out on a greased baking sheet. Now prick it with a fork and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
- Almond topping: Heat butter, sugar, cream and maple syrup in a saucepan and stir in the flaked almonds. Spread the mixture on the yeast dough after it has cooled down. Bake it in a preheated oven at 200 degrees top/bottom heat for approx. 20 minutes and let it cool down on a wire rack.
- Pudding Cream: Prepare vanilla pudding according to package instructions and allow to cool. Mix the soft butter with the mixer until white and creamy and fold in the cold pudding by the spoonful.
- Quarter the cooled pastry and then slice horizontally. Spread the buttercream on the bottom halves and place the other halves on top. Press lightly.
Tip: Put the pieces in the fridge for 30 minutes so that the buttercream hardens and the bee sting is easy to cut.
