50 g oil (or melted butter)

For this recipe you need the following products:
-
Mix all the dough ingredients together at once. The consistency of the dough develops gradually, so adjust it to the desired texture only after 7 to 10 minutes of kneading. Add the raisins, candied citrus peel, and almonds last. Wash and dry the raisins before using them.
-
Let the dough rest for about 5 to 10 minutes, then immediately shape it into a round loaf. To make shaping easier, lightly grease the kitchen counter and work the dough with greased hands.
-
Protect the loaf on the baking tray from drying out on the surface and let it rise for about 50 minutes.
-
Before baking, brush the surface with beaten egg and sprinkle with sliced blanched almonds.
-
Bake at 170 °C for about 35 minutes. If the top seems to be browning too quickly, cover it in time with baking paper.
