[Homemade] Conchas
These are beautiful! For those asking, conchas are a Mexican sweet bread named for the pretty pattern you see on top (concha means seashell, except in Argentina lol).
I used to buy these in my hometown in Wisconsin for 65 cents from the local panaderia and bring them to my great grandpa for breakfast in the summer. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
se ve super bonita, siempre he pensado que a este subreddit le falta pan dulce, hay mucho!
Dough
Bread flour 377 grams
Eggs 113 grams
Water 113 grams
Shortening 19 grams
Instant yeast 15 grams
Sugar 76 grams
Salt 7 grams
Pasta de dulce (topping)
All purpose flour 125 grams
Shortening 84 grams
Powdered sugar 84 grams
In your mixing bowl soften the yeast with the water. Add flour and shortening, let mix until it comes together. Add in your eggs one at a time. For the sugar add gradually by sprinkling in while the dough mixes.
Let dough proof until double in size.
For the topping, mix all ingredients together until combined. You can add more flour if too soft or add more shortening if it is too dry. (You want a butter cookie consistency.) Cover and set aside.
When dough has risen, punch down to release the gas. Then portion into desired size.
Be sure to grease the tops of dough before adding the topping or they won’t stick. Grab some topping and flatten into a disk to cover the top of dough.
Cut topping in desired shape being careful to not cut through to the dough.
Proof until doubled in size. Bake at 350 F for 15-18 mins.
I’ve never heard of or seen a Conchas before, but it looks absolutely amazing!
What is a concha/what is its culture of origin??
Kind of looks a little similar to meron pan (melon bread) that we have in Japan. Is the outer layer a different type of dough?
My Dad has been begging me to make these for him. May just have to give it a shot after seeing these pics.
Recipe please??? The recipe I was using I could never get to turn out right.
You even did manteconchas! Niiiice
Those look amazing!
Are those concha muffins??? Aka manteconchas
wow, they look delicious! I love pan dulce
Do you have a recipe? 🙂
That’s stunning! I’m sure it’s as tasty as it looks!
How do you get that particular shape? Is there a specific pan that’s used? Or shaped by hand??
Here’s a recipe from King Arthur flour that looks good. Not sure how authentic but I’m willing to try it…for science. [Concha Recipe](https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/cinnamon-conchas-recipe)
