2️⃣ Prepare the Fillings
🧑🍳 Walnut Filling:
- Heat milk and sugar in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves.
- Remove from heat and stir in the ground walnuts and cinnamon. Let cool.
🌿 Poppy Seed Filling:
- Heat milk and sugar, then add ground poppy seeds and lemon zest.
- Stir well and let cool.
🍏 Apple Filling:
- In a bowl, mix grated apples, sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
- Let it sit for 5 minutes to release juices, then drain excess liquid.
🍯 Plum Jam:
- If your jam is too thick, warm it slightly to make spreading easier.
3️⃣ Assemble the Flódni
🔥 Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
🌟 Divide the dough into 5 equal pieces (one for each layer).
🛠️ Roll out the first piece of dough into a thin rectangle and place it in a greased baking dish.
1️⃣ Spread the poppy seed filling evenly over the dough.
2️⃣ Roll out the second piece of dough and place it over the poppy seed layer.
3️⃣ Spread the walnut filling evenly over this dough.
4️⃣ Roll out the third dough layer and place it over the walnuts.
5️⃣ Spread the apple filling evenly.
6️⃣ Roll out the fourth dough layer and place it over the apples.
7️⃣ Spread the plum jam on top.
8️⃣ Cover with the final layer of dough and prick it with a fork to prevent air bubbles.
4️⃣ Bake and Serve
⏳ Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
❄️ Let it cool completely before slicing—Flódni tastes best the next day when the layers have melded together.
🍽️ Slice into squares or rectangles and serve with coffee or tea!
💡 Pro Tips
✔️ For extra crispiness, brush the top layer with an egg wash before baking.
✔️ For a deeper flavor, let Flódni sit overnight before eating—it gets even better with time!
✔️ Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
🔥 Flódni is an incredible blend of flavors and textures—the nuttiness, the fruity sweetness, the flaky pastry—it’s truly worth every bite! 😍💖
