Pour yeast milk into the hollow, mix with some flour from the rim and cover with flour. Cover and leave to rise for about 15 minutes. Wash and clean the rhubarb and cut into fine slices. Mix rhubarb with jam and let it soak through. Put Amarettini in a freezer bag and crumble finely with a cake roll

    Add the remaining milk and 2 eggs and knead with the dough hooks of the hand mixer to a smooth dough. Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface to a rectangle (approx. 30 x 70 cm)

Remove the wreath from the oven and let it cool down
