INGREDIENTS (for 2 babkas, you can halve it - or double it!)

For the dough:
150gr 100% hydration ripe sourdough starter
90gr milk
390gr flour (160gr plain, 230gr strong-ish 00 flour, more on this below)
2 small eggs
55gr sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla
60gr butter
a pinch of salt

For the filling (what I used, but you can do whatever you want!):
A jar of Nutella
A bunch of high quality dark chocolate chips

For the syrup:
30gr water
40gr sugar

FLOUR
The aim is to have a flour mix with some strength (in some countries marked as W, otherwise check the protein content). A good value is W200-220 or around 11-11,5gr proteins. I use also some double-0 flour, so that also the grind is quite fine, which results in a better texture. But this is me being picky, you can probably obtain a very good result with the flour you decide to use!

Enjoy!
