Yeast dough

To bake
Approx. 30 mins. in the lower half of an oven preheated to 180°C. Remove from the oven, allow to cool slightly, remove the tin frame, leave the yeast cake to cool on a cooling rack.
Vanilla filling
Bring the milk, honey and vanilla seeds to the boil in a pan. Combine the eggs, cornflour and flour in a bowl. Add approx. 100 ml of hot milk to the eggs, stir until smooth. Pour the egg mixture in with the rest of the milk in the pan. Simmer over a low heat for approx. 12 mins., stirring constantly until it becomes a thick custard, immediately pass through a sieve into a bowl, cover with cling film, leave to cool then chill for approx. 30 mins.
