  • 1 egg (size M)
  • 1/2 (75 g) Cup of sour cream

  • 200 g Sugar
  • 1 medium-sized apple
  • 100 g candied quince or other candied fruit
  • 150 g ground hazelnuts and almonds
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Apricot Jam
  • 80 g Raisins
  • 7-10 Tbsp pulp of 1/2 vanilla pod
  • 1 Egg Yolk

Directions

  1. 1

    Put flour, crumbled yeast, sugar, salt, egg and sour cream in a bowl. Warm the whipped cream slightly and melt the fat in it. Pour it into the bowl and work everything into a smooth dough using the dough hooks of the hand mixer.

  2. 2

    Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes until the dough has visibly increased in size. Meanwhile, cook a syrup from the sugar and 4 tablespoons of water at medium heat. Wash the apple, remove the core and grate roughly.

  3. 3

    Finely dice the quince. Mix apple, quince, hazelnuts, almonds, jam, raisins and vanilla pulp with the syrup. Knead the yeast dough again well and roll out to a rectangle of 50x40 cm on a lightly floured work surface.

  4. 4

    Spread the filling evenly on top, leaving a 2 cm margin all around. Fold in the sides and roll everything up. Then place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and leave to rise for another 15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Spread the nut roll with whisked egg yolk and bake in the preheated oven (electric range: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for 50-60 minutes. Then let it cool down on a cake rack. Serve with whipped cream as desired.

  6. 6

    Results in about 40 slices.
