Step 5: Second Rise
Place the shaped loaf on a parchment-lined baking sheet, cover, and let rise for 1.5–2 hours until puffy.
Step 6: Preheat & Glaze
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Mix the lemon juice and honey, then brush lightly over the loaf.
Step 7: Bake
Bake for 35–40 minutes, until golden brown and the center is set.
Cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
Tips:
For extra tang, let the dough cold ferment overnight after the first rise.
If the cream cheese filling leaks, don’t worry—it will caramelize deliciously!
