Easter cakes on milk with raisins, dried apricots and candied fruits

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare all the ingredients.

2. Step 2:

   

   Baking Easter cakes with milk will begin with the preparation of sourdough. Dissolve yeast, 2 tablespoons of sugar and flour in a glass of milk heated to a temperature of 35-40 degrees, approximately the 5th part of the total volume, that is, 150 grams of flour. We leave the sourdough for fermentation for 40-50 minutes, during fermentation it should double.

3. Step 3:

   

   Beat eggs with sugar, salt and vanilla sugar until the sugar is completely dissolved. Combine the egg mixture and sourdough and mix well again.

4. Step 4:

   

   Sift the flour twice. Sifted flour together with vanilla is added to the sourdough with egg mixture and we introduce softened butter in small portions. We knead not a steep dough, which slightly sticks to the hands.

5. Step 5:

   

   Let the test come up and double in volume.

6. Step 6:

   

   We prepare additives: pour boiling water over the raisins for 5 minutes, filter and dry. Dried apricots are washed and crushed, tangerine candied fruits are crushed. We introduce raisins, dried apricots and candied fruits into the dough, once again we grind well.

8. Step 7:

   

   Baking molds (I have paper disposable molds) lubricate with vegetable or butter and fill the molds with 1/3 of the dough. Leave in a warm place for about 1 hour, until the dough rises and takes at least 2/3 of the volume of the mold. We put it in an oven preheated to 170-180 degrees for 20-50 minutes, depending on the size of the mold.

9. Step 8:

   

   Preparing the glaze:fill the instant gelatin with cold water, leave to swell.

10. Step 9:

    

    Add water to powdered sugar, bring to a boil, remove from heat. Combine powdered sugar with gelatin, add lemon juice and beat with a white mixer. The resulting glaze does not crack, does not break, does not crumble.

11. Step 10:

    

    Warm cakes are covered with icing and decorated with Easter sprinkles.

    Happy Easter to you!
