Sweet & Savory Kolache: Czech Classics & Texas-Style FavoritesCulinary AdventuresBillowy-Soft, and irresistibly delicious—discover two beloved versions of kolache in one unforgettable class. Master two distinct brioche-style doughs, in this hands-on bake-along, where you’ll learn how to create both traditional sweet Czech kolache and savory Texas-style kolache completely from scratch. We’ll start with the classic European version made with a sweet brioche-style dough, filled with fruit preserves or sweetened cheese filling, topped with buttery crumble, and finished with a delicate glaze. Then we’ll explore the Texas favorite; rich tender brioche-style dough, wrapped around savory fillings like sausage and cheese—and elevated, oversized, gourmet take on a pig-in-a-blanket that’s as comforting as it is crave-worthy. We’ll even make a wonderful honey mustard dipping sauce to complete the experience. Along the way, you’ll build confidence working with TWO enriched yeasted doughs and learn techniques you can use again and again. Whether for breakfast, holidays or anytime baking, these kolache are guaranteed to become family favorites.
