I tried it for the second time. Once the dough is coiled and buttered, how long do I have to wait to get the dough to rise again? It expanded but did not rise. Please help! Thanks

I’ve been wanting to make this for a while but couldn’t find a good recipe. Your mallorca looks really good!! I’ll have to give this a try in the near future! When I do, I’ll make sure to link the credit to your blog!! Thx!

What if I use self rising flour?

Tried this and they turned out great-need to use much more flour than you stated, though. Also, an egg wash will give them that brown crunchy top. They do taste light and fluffy, thanks for the recipe and excellent pictures!
(package yeast is a standard size, but I used 1 tablespoon of yeast from a large bulk bag of Bob’s Red Mill.)

Wow!! We visited PR in January and I haven’t been able to get Bombonera out of my head. We had also tried cafe mallorca and it just wasn’t the same. Anyways, i finally tried this recipe and it is amazingly delicious! This was the first time I used yeast and the dough was sticky and took a bit getting used to but the mallorcas were dead on. Thank you thank you thank you!

I have baked very little before and I would like to try this recipe.
One thing I don’t understand is a “package of dry yeast” is that a standard thing?
Are there big packages and small packages?
Thanks for your help

Thank you for this recipe!! Turned out great on the first try. My husband went crazy when I made these for him. He LOVES the mallorcas at La Bombonera. Question: have you ever tried freezing the dough and baking them later? They just take so long to make and you really want to eat them fresh but I don’t always have the time on the day I want them.

Wow Maria you suck. If you think these are terrible your obviously the worst cook (with the worst opinions) ever. These are amazing and if you don’t agree you can go fall in a hole.
