Preparation Steps
1
Activate the yeast: in lukewarm milk, mix in the sugar and yeast, then let it stand for 10 minutes until foamy.
2
In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt, then rub in the butter until evenly distributed and resembles breadcrumbs.
3
Finely chop half of the fresh rosemary, and mix it into the flour mixture along with half of the grated cheese.
4
Add the sour cream, egg, and activated yeast, then knead the dough thoroughly until it comes together.
5
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 2 cm (¾ inch) thick, then fold it three times to create a layered texture.
6
Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes to rise slightly.
7
Roll out the dough again to about 2 cm (¾ inch) thick, then use a pogácsa cutter (or round cookie cutter) to cut out the shapes.
8
Place the pogácsa on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and brush the tops with beaten egg.
9
Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese and rosemary on top, then bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
