Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Start by making the starter: In a medium bowl, combine 100 g flour, 30 g sugar, and crumbled fresh yeast. Gradually add the warm milk while stirring to create a smooth mixture.
  2. Cover the starter with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest in a warm place for about 30 minutes until it becomes bubbly and has doubled in size.
  3. While the starter is resting, soak the raisins in warm water (or optionally in brandy) for 15-20 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
  4. Prepare a 24 cm (9.5 inch) Kugelhopf mold by thoroughly greasing it with butter, then place one almond in each groove at the bottom of the mold.
  5. For the dough, place the 400 g of flour in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the center. Add the risen starter, 70 g sugar, 90 ml milk, eggs, and brandy.
  6. Mix everything together until a cohesive dough forms, then gradually incorporate the softened butter until fully combined.
  7. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes by hand (or 5 minutes with a stand mixer) until it becomes smooth, elastic, and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  8. Fold in the drained raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  9. Transfer the dough to the prepared Kugelhopf mold, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 2-2.5 hours, or until it has nearly reached the top of the mold.
  10. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
  11. Bake the Kugelhopf in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Allow the cake to cool in the mold for 10 minutes, then carefully turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  13. Just before serving, generously dust the Kugelhopf with powdered sugar.
