Homemade christmas bread cupcake

Sift the flour. Fry the nuts. The weight of candied fruits and dried fruits is indicated as soaked. Candied fruit was made on its own, if interesting, here is the recipe https :

I add yeast, sugar, eggs, milk to the flour and knead the dough for 10 minutes. Do not add all the flour at once. Leave 50 grams and add it gradually.

Then butter in small pieces and continue to mix for another 5 minutes.

The dough should be uniform, well-kneaded. Slightly sticky. Don't clog it with flour.

Then spice and literally stir for a minute. Then I interfere with nuts, dried fruits and candied fruits.

Rounding it up. Cover with a towel or cling film and remove to a warm place for 3 hours. I usually put it in a switched off oven with the light bulb on.

This dough fits long enough.

I'll knock it off. If it sticks, lightly sprinkle with flour. It turns out very tender, soft. With my hands I form a rectangle and roll it up.

I give the shape of the loaf.

I carefully transfer it to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (in my case, a Teflon mat). And so that the bread does not go on the sides during proofing, I fix the edges with improvised means. You can generally make it easier and bake in a uniform with sides.

I cover with cling film so that I do not covet and put it back in a warm place for 3 hours.

When the proofing time comes to an end, I heat the oven to 170-180 degrees. Since yeast dough loves moisture very much, I will bake bread in a moistened oven. I immediately send a glass of hot water there (to the bottom).

When the bread comes up, without lubricating it, I send it to a preheated oven. I bake until tender. Approximately 45-60 minutes.

My bread was baked for 45 minutes.

This baby turned out to be 1. 5 kg: )

While it is still hot, it lubricates well on all sides with butter. And I let it cool completely. I left it for the night.

I sprinkle well with icing sugar and you can call everyone for tea.

Sweet, fragrant and just very tasty bread turned out.

The dough is hearty, heavy, wet. It works very well with nuts and dried fruits. Spicy. Moderately sweet. Be sure to put salt in the dough (8g!) She shades the taste very well.

Such a piece with butter, and under a cup of coffee. . . Bliss!!!: )

It tastes like Panettone's Italian cake, but not so tender. Thank you for giving me the time. I wish you all a wonderful, festive mood!!!
