Ingredients

Servings: 1
  • 2 Glasses (720 ml each) Sour cherries
  • 550 g Flour
  • 7-10 Tbsp grated rind of 1 untreated lemon
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 75 g Sugar
  • 50 g soft butter
  • 7-10 Tbsp pulp of 1 vanilla pod
  • 1 egg (size M)
  • 1/4 l Milk
  • 1 cube (42 g) fresh yeast
  • 50 g Amarettini (Italian almond biscuits)
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Breadcrumbs
  • 1 TEASPOON Cinnamon
  • 1 Egg yolk (size M)
  • 125 g Icing sugar
  • 3 TABLESPOONS Almond liqueur (e.g. Amaretto)
  • 7-10 Tbsp Flour
  • baking paper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Icing sugar and lemon balm

Directions

  1. 1

    Pour the cherries into a sieve and drain well. Put 500 g flour, lemon zest, salt, sugar, butter in flakes, vanilla pulp and egg into a mixing bowl and mix. Warm up the milk.

  2. 2

    Crumble yeast into it and dissolve. Add to the flour mixture and work into a smooth dough with the dough hooks of the hand mixer. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes. In the meantime crumble the Amarettini and mix with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Spread the cherries on kitchen paper and dab dry. Turn in remaining flour. Knead dough again with floured hands. Roll out the dough into a rectangle (approx. 45x33 cm) on a lightly floured work surface.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle the dough with Amarettini breadcrumbs, leaving a rim of approx. 1 cm all around. Spread floured cherries evenly on top and dust finely with cinnamon. Spread the short sides and one long side of the dough with egg yolk.

  5. 5

    Roll up the dough from the unbrushed long side so that the seam brushed with egg yolk forms the underside of the roll. Briefly fold in the ends. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and leave to rise again in a warm place for about 20 minutes.

  6. 6

    Then carefully scratch the surface and bake in the preheated oven (electric oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for approx. 40 minutes. Mix icing sugar and liqueur. Remove the roll from the oven, place the tray on a grid and brush the roll with the icing immediately.

  7. 7

    Let the roll cool down and let the cast dry. Serve the roll dusted with icing sugar and decorated with lemon balm. Results in about 20 slices.
