    1

    Warm the milk slightly, dissolve the sugar in it. Crumble the yeast into the milk and let it proof.

    2

    Sift the flour into a large bowl, add the salt, egg yolks, melted butter, sour cream, and the proofed yeast. Knead into a smooth dough, then cover and let it rise for 1 hour.

    3

    For the walnut filling, heat the milk, add the sugar and ground walnuts. Stir until smooth, then let it cool.

    4

    Similarly, for the poppy seed filling, heat the milk, add the sugar and ground poppy seeds, then stir until smooth and let it cool.

    5

    Roll out the risen dough to about 1 cm thickness and cut out circular shapes.

    6

    Fill the circles with a teaspoon of walnut or poppy seed filling, then fold them over and reshape them.

    7

    Place the pogácsa on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them rest for 15 minutes. Brush with egg yolk.

    8
