Steps

1

Take a slighty bigger bowl and add in flour, sugar, vanilla sugar, a pinch of salt and mix wel

2

Make a little dimple in the middle, pour in a half of tepid milk. Add yeast and mix it a little.

3

Cover the bowl with a cloth and let rest for 15 – 20 minutes until its nice and bubbly.

4

Then add the rest of your milk, whipped egg, molten butter and lemon zest. Mix it until you create a nice dough. Then add raisins and almonds and mix well.

Now let it rest for 60 minutes in a warm place covered with a cloth.

6

Then put it on a board and make two loaves. Prepare a baking sheet, put your two loaves on and let it rest for another 90 minutes.

7

Let the dough rise and then spread it with whipped egg and top with chopped almonds.

8

Put it in an oven at 160°C and bake for 45 minutes until the top gets a bit golden. If you want to make sure it’s done inside, use a skewer.
