Classic raisin cake

A real classic Easter cake should contain flavors such as candied fruits, raisins, candied peel. To give the dough a delicate warm color, it is tinted with saffron. Instead of raisins, the classic recipe includes almonds, as well as some spices: vanilla, saffron, cardamom, cloves, etc. Often, classic Easter cake has a vanilla or cardamom aroma.

To make a classic Easter cake with raisins, you will need:

Chicken eggs - 3 pcs.
Flour - 500 g
Milk - 200 m
Butter - 125 g
Sugar - 120 g
Raisins - 200 g
Yeast (dry) - 5-6 g
Egg white - 2 pcs.
Powdered sugar - 100 g
Vanillin - to taste
Confectionery sprinkles

How to prepare a classic Easter cake:

1. It should be noted right away that all products (except for 2 proteins that we need to prepare the glaze) must be removed from the refrigerator in advance (well, at least an hour before cooking).
The first step is to prepare the dough. To do this, first mix slightly warmed milk (its temperature should not exceed 30 degrees) with 1 tbsp. spoon of sugar and 1/3 of flour. Then add yeast and mix everything again. Cover the dough with cling film (or a towel) and leave in a warm place (no drafts) for 25-40 minutes.
2. As soon as the dough increases in volume, it must be kneaded, i.e. stir (and it is best done with a wooden spoon). Next, we separate the whites from the yolks and grind the yolks with sugar and vanilla, after which we add them together with 1/3 of the flour to the dough. Mix everything thoroughly.
3. Whisk the whites into a strong foam with a pinch of salt. We add them to our dough, stirring gently. Now we mix in the last part of the flour. We soften the butter in a water bath, which is also sent to the dough.
4. So, the dough must be thoroughly kneaded with your hands (knead for at least 10-15 minutes). Remember, it shouldn't stick to your hands. If it sticks, then add a little more flour.
We send the kneaded dough again to a warm place so that it comes up again and approximately doubles in size (approximately for 30-60 minutes). Please note that the rate of rise will depend on the freshness and quality of the yeast and the room temperature.

6. At this time, rinse and dry the raisins and add them to the dough, as soon as it comes up, knead the dough again with your hands and leave to rise for another 30-60 minutes.
7. Grease the baking dish (s) with butter and put our dough in it (before that, you need to knead it again). We fill the forms by about 1/3 of their volume (maximum by 1/2). If you put too much dough, then when baking the cake will get too high a "hat", and it can easily fall on its side. Do not forget, before you put the forms in the oven, the dough must be allowed to come up for another 15-25 minutes (right in the forms).
8. Then we bake the cakes in a preheated oven at a temperature of 150 degrees for 45-60 minutes. The exact baking time will depend on the height and width of your tins. As soon as you notice that the cake is already gilded on top, check its readiness with an ordinary wooden skewer. If the stick comes out dry, then your cake is ready. It is worth emphasizing that you cannot remove the finished cakes from the mold immediately after baking, first they need to be given time to cool well.
9. To decorate the cake, you can make a delicious protein glaze: in a convenient bowl, knock 2 chilled egg whites with 100 g of powdered sugar (it can be replaced with regular sugar). Once your frosting is fluffy and stable enough (will hold its shape), apply it to the tops of your Easter cakes, and sprinkle them with decorative confectionery sprinkles on top.

Fragrant Easter

Every year our family prepares one of three recipes for Easter cakes. All three are time-tested, all amazing, the main thing is to decide which one to choose this time. Here is the second of these family recipes.

Cooking description:

Anticipating your questions, let me just make a reservation - I know perfectly well that in Russia this traditional Easter cake (and in essence it is a cake) is called nothing other than cake. However, in Ukraine, Belarus, and many regions of Russia, this cake is called Easter, although in fact Easter is made from cottage cheese. So - do not get confused :) However, what's the difference how to call this pastry. The main thing is that we all understand what is at stake.

So, a simple recipe for fragrant Easter:

1. Make a dough - boil 0.5 liters of milk, let it cool down a little, and while it is hot, add 2-2.5 cups of flour and mix thoroughly. The mass should turn out like thick sour cream or like a dough for pancakes. Cover and heat for 2 hours.
2. Dissolve 100 grams of yeast in a glass of warm water, mix with dough, grind until smooth and leave to walk for 2-3 hours.
3. Prepare buns - beat 9 eggs and 3 yolks with sugar until frothy. We take a large container for the dough (pot or bucket). We put dough, yeast, eggs, melted butter and margarine, sour cream, 0.5 liters of warm milk, salt there. We mix everything very well.
4. Add flour in portions. We stop when the dough becomes like pancakes. Knead thoroughly with a spoon or hand until a trace of dry flour disappears. We set to play for 3-4 hours. Attention! The dough must be knocked down periodically, otherwise it will run away!
5. Now it's time to add raisins, vanilla, and other spices to taste. Knead the dough, again adding a little flour, until the mass begins to stick off the hands and dishes.
6. Leave the dough for another 20 minutes to rise, and lay out on the prepared forms (greased with parchment). Bake for 40-45 minutes at 180-190 degrees.
7. While still hot, grease the tops with glaze, decorate with powder, figures, etc.

Usually, the bright Resurrection of Christ is met by the family circle. Everyone breaks their fast with homemade goodies after a long fast. And everyone will agree that there is nothing tastier than homemade Easter. I hope that this simple recipe for Easter with raisins in milk, with photos taken step by step, will help you to easily and easily cope with the preparation of this ritual holiday baking.

Ingredients:

  • 500 ml of milk;
  • 200 grams of butter;
  • 150 gr sour cream;
  • 4 eggs;
  • 1.5 kg of flour;
  • 20 grams of dry yeast;
  • 4 tbsp. tablespoons of vegetable oil;
  • 600 grams of sugar;
  • 1 teaspoon of salt;
  • icing;
  • vanilla;
  • raisins;
  • caramel decoration.

How to bake Easter at home

The first step is to prepare the dough. Add yeast to warm milk, 3 tbsp each. tablespoons of sugar and flour.

In a quiet and warm place, the dough rises quickly.

ATTENTION: Remember that we keep all products warm for at least a couple of hours before preparing the dough; it is not recommended to serve them cold in the dough.

Separate the whites from the yolks for the glaze (two are enough). We put the separated proteins in the cold, so they will beat more easily.

Add the rest of the sugar to the yolks.

Beat with a fork until light foam.

Pour raisins with boiling water for 2 minutes and drain.

Do not forget to first sort through it and remove twigs and other debris, if it is there.

The dough took on a lush cap as in the photo above - add melted butter and vegetable oil, sour cream and salt. Stir slightly, add eggs and flour.

We dip the raisins in flour and also mix in the dough.

Now, gain strength, because kneading the dough for Easter lasts at least 30 minutes.

Place the butter dough in a bowl for an hour and a half. Usually, during this time, it rises about three times. How the just kneaded and already matched Easter dough looks like is clearly visible in the photo below.

We knead it and once again set it aside to rise.

Fill the greased forms up to ⅓ of the height.

It is very convenient to use paper or silicone molds. Homemade Easter in them turns out to be smooth and beautiful, easily removed.

An hour later - Easter has risen to the top, which means it's time to bake! We bake at 180 ° C, usually it takes 20 minutes. Generally, the baking time depends on the size of the mold.

While they are baking, beat the proteins from the pack, you can add a little citric acid. If you don't have such a dry glaze, then just beat them with powdered sugar.

Decorate cooled Easter with icing and caramel sprinkles.

Enjoy your meal! Christ is risen!

Anticipating your questions, let me just make a reservation - I know perfectly well that in Russia this traditional Easter cake (and in essence it is a cake) is called nothing other than cake. However, in Ukraine, Belarus, and many regions of Russia, this cake is called Easter, although in fact Easter is made from cottage cheese. So - do not get confused :) However, what's the difference how to call this pastry. The main thing is that we all understand what is at stake.

So, a simple recipe for fragrant Easter:

1. Make a dough - boil 0.5 liters of milk, let it cool down a little, and while it is hot, add 2-2.5 cups of flour and mix thoroughly. The mass should turn out like thick sour cream or like a dough for pancakes. Cover and heat for 2 hours.
2. Dissolve 100 grams of yeast in a glass of warm water, mix with dough, grind until smooth and leave to walk for 2-3 hours.
3. Prepare buns - beat 9 eggs and 3 yolks with sugar until frothy. We take a large container for the dough (pot or bucket). We put dough, yeast, eggs, melted butter and margarine, sour cream, 0.5 liters of warm milk, salt there. We mix everything very well.
4. Add flour in portions. We stop when the dough becomes like pancakes. Knead thoroughly with a spoon or hand until a trace of dry flour disappears. We set to play for 3-4 hours. Attention! The dough must be knocked down periodically, otherwise it will run away!
5. Now it's time to add raisins, vanilla, and other spices to taste. Knead the dough, again adding a little flour, until the mass begins to stick off the hands and dishes.
6. Leave the dough for another 20 minutes to rise, and lay out on the prepared forms (greased with parchment). Bake for 40-45 minutes at 180-190 degrees.
7. While still hot, grease the tops with glaze, decorate with powder, figures, etc.

Done. Believe me, you have never eaten such delicious cakes!

Easter cakes on margarine
I always bake Easter cakes in margarine - I personally like them more than any other. Their undoubted advantage is that for a very long time they can not get stale and not deteriorate. Well, in terms of taste, margarine cakes are in no way inferior to cakes prepared in the traditional way.
Ingredients:
Margarine - 200 Grams
Cream - 500 Milliliters
Sunflower oil - 125 Milliliters
Sour cream - 200 Grams
Eggs - 12 Pieces
Salt - 1 tbsp. the spoon
Sugar - 1 Glass
Flour, optional - 500 grams (approximately, be guided by the thickness of the dough)
Yeast, sticks - 0.5 Pieces
Vanilla, pack - 2 Pieces
Egg whites - 4 Pieces (glaze)
Sugar - 1.5 Cups (glaze)
1. In a separate bowl, melt the margarine, pour in half a liter of cream, half a glass of sunflower oil, sour cream, eight eggs, salt, sugar (one glass). We warm it up to get the temperature of fresh milk, open the yeast here (somewhere a matchbox), add flour (you should get the density of medium pancakes).
2. Prepare a baking dish. Lubricate it with margarine and sprinkle with flour. It is necessary to pour flour into the form and then knock on it (this will distribute the flour evenly along the walls and bottom of the form). To make the cakes high, you need to put culinary paper in the form, then fasten it.
3. Spread half of the dough out of one cup on the board (sprinkle the board with flour first). Stir in the cut dried apricots and raisins into the dough.
4. We separate the pieces from the dough with the required volume, and fill the molds with them by a third. Minutes thirty or forty, for proofing, let stand. After that, put the molds in an oven preheated to 180 degrees to bake (do not grease with an egg).
5. For the glaze, beat the whites into dry foam and stir in the sugar. When the cakes are baked, we spread them on a towel, and then put them on the board, when they cool, we spread the icing.
6. Easter cakes are ready. You can decorate with multi-colored powder.

A simple recipe for kulich in Old Russian:

Dough preparation: Dissolve yeast in warm milk and mix with 1/2 of all flour. Leave in a warm place for about 5 hours. You need to wait for the dough to rise and begin to settle. Then add the second half of the flour, egg yolks, butter, sugar, raisins. All this must be good

For several years in a row I have been preparing Easter cakes according to a recipe proven over the years. But quite recently, having come across very flattering reviews of a cooking method I did not know, I decided that I should definitely try to cook Easter cakes in this way. And I was not mistaken! The cakes turned out to be simply extraordinary: soft, airy, juicy, fragrant !! So far, these are the most delicious Easter cakes that I have ever tasted!

So, we prepare the following ingredients: milk, flour, sugar, good butter (do not skimp on it, this is very important), homemade chicken eggs, pear essence (can be replaced with vanilla sugar), dry yeast, raisins, dried apricots and candied fruits.

Pour 0.5 liters of milk into a deep bowl and heat it slightly (I do this in the microwave). It shouldn't be hot, but slightly warm. Add 2 tsp to the milk. dry yeast, do not mix and leave the whole thing for 10 minutes.

After the specified time, mix the milk with yeast, they should already completely dissolve. Pour 0.5 kg of flour into the milk.

Mix thoroughly. Dough is ready!

We put the dough in a warm place, covering it with a clean towel. Keep in mind that it will rise so that your dough does not run away anywhere. The dough should come up twice, it will take about 30-60 minutes. Remove the butter from the refrigerator so that it has time to soften.

When you see that the dough has come up, separate the yolks from the whites.

Add 200-300 grams of sugar to the yolks.

Whisk the yolks and sugar until firm.

Add 2 drops of essence or vanilla sugar to the beaten yolks.

Whisk the whites until steep peaks.

Pour the whipped yolks into the dough.

Also send the softened butter to the dough.

Mix everything well so that the oil is evenly distributed throughout the volume.

It was the turn of the proteins. Pour them into the dough.

For making Easter cakes, you should use deep and large dishes. If you don't have it (like me), then you just need to divide the resulting dough into 2 containers.

Now add the remaining flour. Add in small amounts because you may not need all the flour.

We knead the dough. It shouldn't be cool, but it shouldn't stick to your hands either. Knead the dough for at least half an hour.

Put the dough in a warm place again, covered with a towel, for 60 minutes.

Pour boiling water over raisins and dried apricots for 10 minutes. Then rinse the dried fruit thoroughly and leave to drain. Cut dried apricots into small cubes.

Add raisins, dried apricots and candied fruits to the suitable dough.

Knead the dough again so that the entire filling is evenly distributed over it.

We direct the dough to come up for half an hour. Then we fill the molds 1/3 with dough or, if you want the cakes to come out high, then a little short of the middle of the mold. Leave the dough in the molds for another half hour to 40 minutes. We turn on the oven.

When the dough in the molds comes up, we send the cakes to the oven, preheated to 100 degrees, for 10 minutes.

Then, after 10 minutes, increase the temperature to 180 degrees and bake the cakes for another 20-30 minutes. We check the readiness with a match or a toothpick.

A lot of cakes come out of these products.

Cooking icing for cakes. To do this, beat 2 proteins until steep peaks. Then add 50 grams of sugar to them and beat again. Cover the still hot cakes with icing and decorate to taste.

Bright Resurrection of Christ to you and bon appetit!
