Dough recipe:
– 150g of butter
– A pinch of salt
– 120g of sugar
– 3 whole eggs + 1 yolk
– Grated peel of 1 lemon
– 100g of chopped walnuts
– 50g of dried cranberries
– 50g of raisins
– 100g of dry chopped figs
– 1 spoon of rum
– 200g of flour
– 1 baking powder
Royal Icing Recipe:
– 1 egg white
– 200g of powdered sugar
– 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
Procedure:
1) Beat butter, sugar and a pinch of salt with a mixer at medium speed for a long time until the mixture becomes foamy
2) Add one egg at a time while beating with a mixer.
Add the grated rind of one lemon
3) Soak the raisins in rum, and chop the walnuts and dried figs into smaller pieces.
Add walnuts, cranberries, raisins, and dried figs to the dough.
We mix so that all the fruit is evenly distributed throughout the mixture
4) Mix baking powder and flour and sift into the mixture. Stir gently with a whisk from the bottom of the bowl upwards. Mix until the mixture is completely combined
5) Coat the Kugelhopf mold with oil and pour the mixture into it.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for about 45 minutes.
At the end of baking, check with a wooden stick whether the Kugelhopf is baked from the inside
6) We make the royal icing for our Kugelhopf by whipping the egg whites with a fork or a wire just until it foams a little. Then we gradually add powdered sugar, stirring all the time. At the end, add a spoonful of lemon juice
7) When the Kugelhopf has cooled, move it to a serving tray and pour the glaze over it
Good appetite ❤️
