Instructions
- Warm the milk until just warmed (not hot) and add in the yeast. Stir and leave for 5 minutes until frothy.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the sugar, egg, and melted butter with the milk/yeast mixture.
- Mix the salt into the flour and add into the mixer.
- Using a dough hook, knead until everything is combined. Continue to knead for 5 minutes on medium speed until a smooth elastic dough is formed.
- Cover the bowl with clingfilm and leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Grease and line a 9x13 inch baking tray with high sides. Place the dough into the prepared tray and, using your fingers, press it into the corners until it is an even layer covering the whole tray.
- Cover and leave to rise in a warm place again for about 1 hour.
- In the meantime, for the topping, warm the butter and brown sugar over low heat. Keep stirring until it's completely melted and emulsified together.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Press your fingers into the dough to make deep indents throughout. Pour over the melted sugar topping to fill the holes.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and bubbling, turning the tray halfway through.
- Cut and serve on the day.
