Preparation time: 30 minutes
Rising time: 1 hour
Baking time: 20 minutes
Waiting time: 10 hours
Number of servings: 12 savarins

Ingredients:
For the dough:
- 1 egg
- 200 ml warm milk
- 250 g sifted flour
- 15 g fresh yeast
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons oil
- A pinch of salt

For the syrup:
- 400 ml water
- 250 g sugar
- 1 vial of rum essence

For the filling:
- 500 g whipped cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons strawberry jam (or plums, raspberries, depending on preferences)

Step 1: Prepare the dough
Start by dissolving the yeast in 50 ml of warm milk. Then, in a large bowl, add the sifted flour and sugar. Create a well in the center of the flour and add the dissolved yeast, egg, oil, and the remaining milk. Also, add a pinch of salt to balance the taste. Mix all the ingredients until you get a soft dough, similar to thick sour cream. It is important not to overdo it with the flour, as we want to keep the moisture of the dough.

Step 2: Let the dough rise
Cover the bowl with a clean towel and let the dough rise in a warm place, away from drafts, for about an hour or until it doubles in volume. This step is essential for obtaining fluffy and airy savarins.

Step 3: Prepare the molds
While the dough is rising, prepare the savarin molds. Grease each mold with a little oil to prevent sticking. Use a spoon to fill the molds with about 1.5 tablespoons of the dough mixture. Make sure not to overfill them, as the savarins will rise during baking.

Step 4: Bake the savarins
Let the molds rise for 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius and bake the savarins for 20 minutes, or until they become golden and fluffy. After baking, remove them from the molds and let them cool completely on a rack.

Step 5: Prepare the syrup
Meanwhile, prepare the syrup. Put the water and sugar in a pot over medium heat. Stir until the sugar completely dissolves. After the syrup has boiled for a few minutes, add the rum essence and mix well. Let the syrup cool slightly.

Step 6: Soak the savarins
When the savarins have cooled, cut a small lid off the top. Soak each savarin with the prepared syrup, making sure to soak them well for an intense flavor. Let the savarins absorb the syrup for about 10 hours. This step is crucial as it allows the savarins to become juicy and full of taste.

Step 7: Prepare the filling
In a bowl, whip the cream with the powdered sugar until firm and fluffy. This step is essential for obtaining a stable whipped cream that won't deflate.

Step 8: Fill the savarins
After the savarins have soaked in the syrup, fill each savarin with whipped cream using a piping bag or a spoon. Place the cut lid on top and add a teaspoon of strawberry jam (or other preferred jam) on top of each savarin, followed by a dollop of whipped cream. It is recommended to serve the savarins immediately, but they can be stored in the refrigerator to enhance the flavors.

Helpful tips:
- If you want a healthier option, you can use sugar-free jam or replace the whipped cream with Greek yogurt.
- Instead of rum essence, you can experiment with vanilla or almond essence for different flavors.
- On hot days, savarins can be served with vanilla ice cream for a refreshing dessert.
- Pair savarins with a sweet wine or fruit liqueur for an unforgettable culinary experience.
