- Preparation: 140 min
- Cooking: 50 min
- Makes: 1 serving (88.6 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, egg, gluten
Ingredients
- 36 g Flour, all-purpose
- 18 g Milk, whole
- 1.5 g Yeast, fresh
- 11 g Sugar
- 10 g Butter
- 3 g Egg yolks
- 0.2 g Lemon zest
- 0.3 g Salt
- 0.6 g Cinnamon
- 8 g Raisins
Method
- Warm the milk until lukewarm, crumble in the yeast with a spoonful of the sugar and a spoonful of the flour, and leave it for 15 minutes until bubbly.
- Mix the rest of the flour with a third of the remaining sugar, the salt and the lemon zest. Add the yeast mixture, the egg yolks and half the butter, melted and lukewarm, and knead for 10 minutes until smooth and glossy and the dough comes away from the bowl. Cover and leave to rise for 1 hour, until doubled.
- Butter a Reindling or Gugelhupf tin generously with a little of the butter and sprinkle it with a little of the sugar.
- Roll the dough out into a rectangle about 5 mm thick. Brush it with the rest of the butter, melted, leaving a narrow border, and sprinkle it with the rest of the sugar mixed with the cinnamon, then with the raisins.
- Roll it up tightly from a long side and lay it in the tin, seam inwards, pressing the ends together. Cover and leave to rise for 30-45 minutes, until it nearly fills the tin. Meanwhile heat the oven to 170 °C.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes until deep golden brown, covering it with foil if it darkens too fast. Leave it for 5 minutes, then turn it out; the sugar in the tin forms a caramel crust. Cool on a rack.
- In Carinthia, Reindling goes with coffee, and at Easter with ham, eggs and horseradish too.
