Preparation Steps
- Blend almond flour and confectioner’s sugar together, then mix in almond extract and egg white. Shape the mixture into a dough and refrigerate for later use.
- Julienne citrus peels and poach them in boiling water twice. Then, simmer in sugar syrup until translucent, coat them in granulated sugar, and let them dry.
- Combine raisins, slivered almonds, and your candied peel in a bowl. Pour dark rum over the mixture and let it soak overnight.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together warm milk, sugar, and instant yeast until foamy. Combine all-purpose flour, additional sugar, salt, and spices. Add the wet ingredients and knead until the dough is smooth.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1.5 hours.
- Gently knead in the soaked fruit mixture and shape the dough into ovals for the stollen.
- Roll the chilled marzipan into logs and place them in the center of each oval dough piece. Seal the edges around the marzipan.
- Cover the shaped dough again and let them rise for another 1.5 hours at room temperature.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the stollen for 35-45 minutes until golden brown.
- Once baked, prick each loaf with a toothpick, brush with melted butter, and dust with powdered sugar.
