Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 350 g Flour
  • 7-10 Tbsp grated rind of 1/2 untreated lemon
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 36 g Fructose
  • 150 ml Milk
  • 1/2 cube (21 g) Yeast
  • 40 g soft butter or margarine
  • 1 egg (size M)
  • 7-10 Tbsp pulp of 1/2 vanilla pod
  • 80 g shelled almonds
  • 1 Drops of bitter almond aroma
  • 60 g Whipped cream
  • 75 g Sour cherry jam
  • 1 Egg Yolk
  • 25 g Apricot Jam
  • 7-10 Tbsp Flour
  • baking paper

Directions

  1. 1

    Put flour, lemon zest, salt and 24 g fructose in a bowl. Warm milk lukewarm, crumble yeast into it and dissolve. Add fat, egg and vanilla pulp to the flour and knead everything into a smooth dough. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes

  2. 2

    In the meantime grind the almonds finely. Mix in the remaining fruit sugar and flavour. Add cream and work everything into a spreadable mixture

  3. 3

    Knead the dough once and roll out into a rectangle (approx. 40x25 cm) on a lightly floured work surface. Spread half of the dough sheet with marzipan, the other half with the cherry jam, leaving a rim (approx. 1 cm) on the long sides. Whisk the egg yolk and brush the rim with it. Roll up the dough sheet from the long side. Cut the dough roll lengthwise with a sharp knife. Turn the halves around each other to form a cord, press the ends together well. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and leave to rise for about 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Bake the plait in a preheated oven (electric: 200 °C/ gas: level 3) for about 35 minutes. Heat up the apricot jam, pass through a sieve and brush the hot plait with it. Leave to cool. Results in approx. 20 slices
