Instructions

  1. In a bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in the lukewarm water. Wait 5 minutes for it to foam.
  2. Add the flour, salt and oil, then knead for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  3. Cover and leave to rise for 1 hour at room temperature.
  4. Knock the dough back, divide it into 6 to 8 equal portions and shape each into a tight ball.
  5. Place the breads on a baking-paper-lined tray, cover and leave to rise for another 30 minutes.
  6. Preheat the oven to 220 °C (gas mark 7-8). Beat the yolk with the milk and brush the breads, then sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.
  7. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until they sound hollow when you tap the base. Cool on a wire rack.

Variations and tips

Wholemeal hljebići. Replace 100 g of the Type 65 flour with wholemeal flour for a more rustic loaf.
