Ingredients for the bread of the dead recipe in airfryer

• Wheat flour - 1 cup
• Butter - 0.09 lb
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp orange blossom water
• 2 level tsp dry yeast
• 2 tbsp white sugar
• 1 tbsp of milk
• Cinnamon
• Salt

Preparation in airfryer

Preparation time: 10 minutes

Rest: 2 hours

Cooking time: 30 minutes

1. In a large bowl we add the dry ingredients (flour, yeast, a pinch of salt and sugar)
2. We make a hole in the center and add an egg, milk, butter, orange blossom water
3. We mix all the ingredients until a smooth dough is made.
4. We cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for 2 hours.
5. We knead a little again to remove the gas and cut 1/4 part of the mixture (we reserve this part)
6. With the large dough we make a ball and flatten it slightly with our hands (it should look like a bun).
7. We use the rest of the dough to create bones: we make a larger ball for the center and 8 smaller balls
8. We press-glue the balls into the previous dough, with the large ball in the center and the balls around it (it should look like this + symbol)
9. We prepare a glaze with a tablespoon of sugar, a tablespoon of melted butter and a beaten egg
10. We paint all the breads being careful not to move the balls
11. We place the bread of the dead on air fryer paper so that the air can circulate.
12. We cook in the airfryer at 150 ºC for 30 minutes
13. We wait for it to cool and varnish with more melted butter or milk, and sprinkle sugar and cinnamon on top.
14. And now we have our air fryer bread of the dead recipe ready!
