This classic recipe for freezer-to-oven European Danish is the perfect base for adding your favorite fillings, glazes, and toppings. Garnish with fresh fruit, chocolate or your favorite icing to create a variety of sweet treats that customers are sure to enjoy.

Prep Time: 2 hours, 10 minutes

Bake Time: 12-15 minutes

Instructions

Combine ingredients in a spiral mixer and blend for 4 minutes on your mixer’s first speed and then for 6 minutes on your mixer’s second speed, or until dough is about 85% developed. Maintain the dough temperature at 74°F (23.3°C). At this point, you may place the dough in a cooler overnight, if desired.

 

Next, laminate the dough with three single folds keeping 1 hour in between turns and placing the dough in the cooler between folds. Please note, the roll-in butter amount for lamentation will be based on the dough weight (50% for traditional Danish and 25% for German-style Danish). Do not go below 10 mm during lamination. Next, gradually sheet the dough down to 5 mm. From here, you may scale and shape the dough as desired.

 

Once dough as been formed into it’s desired shape, place into a proofer set to 80°F (27°C) with 85-90% humidity for + / – 40 minutes.

 

Next, blast freeze for 20 minutes at -22°F (-30°C). Keep danish frozen until ready to bake. To bake, remove from freezer and place directly into a revolving or rack oven set to 370°F (187°C) and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until danish are golden in color. Remove from oven, and immediately apply an apricot glaze. Let cool and garnish as desired.
