- Preparation: 140 min
- Cooking: 35 min
- Makes: 1 serving (87.3 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, egg, gluten, nut
Ingredients
- 42 g Flour, all-purpose
- 18 g Milk, whole
- 1.7 g Yeast, fresh
- 5 g Sugar
- 5 g Butter, unsalted
- 6 g Egg
- 2 g Egg yolk (for brushing)
- 0.3 g Lemon zest
- 5 g Raisins
- 2 g Almonds, sliced
- 0.3 g Salt
Method
- Warm the milk until just lukewarm (about 35 °C), stir in the crumbled yeast and a spoonful of the sugar, and leave for 10 minutes until foamy.
- Mix the flour with the rest of the sugar, the salt and the lemon zest. Add the yeast milk, the egg and the softened butter, and knead for 10 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic and comes away from the bowl. Knead in the raisins.
- Cover the bowl and leave in a warm place for 1 hour, until doubled in size.
- Divide the dough into three equal pieces and roll each into a strand about 40 cm long. Braid the strands tightly, pinch the ends together and tuck them underneath.
- Lay the braid on a baking tray lined with baking paper, cover with a cloth and leave to rise for 40 minutes. Meanwhile heat the oven to 180 °C.
- Beat the egg yolk with a few drops of milk, brush it over the braid and scatter the sliced almonds on top.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes until deep golden and hollow-sounding when tapped underneath, covering it loosely with foil if it browns too fast. Cool on a rack before slicing.
