Then stir until the yeast is completely dissolved.

Add three tablespoons of flour, a whisper of sugar to the yeast solution, mix until smooth.

You will get a liquid yeast starter. Cover the bowl and leave it warm for 20 minutes.

While the yeast is activated and rising, we take the cottage cheese, pour milk into it and interrupt with a blender so that there are no lumps left.

The cottage cheese should turn out to be like sour cream in consistency, then the cake will turn out to be very tender, without curd lumps.

Add to curd mass chicken eggs, salt, sugar, melted but not hot butter.

And with the same blender, stir again until smooth.

Add the foamed yeast mash to the curd mass and mix.

Add the sifted flour in stages and knead the dough.

The dough will gradually thicken.

When it becomes impossible to stir it with a spoon, you can proceed to manual kneading.

It will take approximately 10-15 minutes to knead the dough. We pull it out, turn it over, crumple it, we do not regret it.

Even after making all the flour according to the recipe, the dough should remain sticky, soft and fluffy.

During kneading at the end, we introduce already prepared, steamed raisins, knead for a couple more minutes and you're done!

Cooking:

Pour boiling water over raisins or other dried fruits in advance so that they become soft enough.

Take 30 g of cream, warm it up a little and add yeast to it. Stir until dissolved.

Separate two heaped tablespoons from the bulk of the flour. Bring the remaining cream to a boil.

Mix flour and boiled cream and rub well without lumps.

Cool to 40 degrees (so that the hand is not hot to touch) and add the yeast solution to this custard dough.

Mix everything together, cover with cling film and leave in a warm place until it doubles in size.

You can determine the readiness of the dough in this way: at first, the dough actively grows and tends to rise, but then there comes a moment when it begins to settle, which means it is ready.

It took us about 45 minutes to make our dough.

Mix the remaining flour with salt and cardamom.

Beat the yolks with sugar with a blender, add vanilla and soft butter there.

The yeast dough stood for 45 minutes, it has already begun to settle and it is all so pimply and airy.

Add to it the egg mixture that we just made and, while stirring, begin to add flour, gradually.

Put the remaining flour on the table and continue to mix it into the dough.

We interfere for a long time and carefully, all the flour should go into the dough.

Knead and knead for 10 minutes.

As a result, the dough is homogeneous, soft, but does not stick to your hands.

Grease a bowl with oil, round the dough and cover with cling film.

Leave warm until doubled in size. For this amount of testing - 1 hour 20 minutes.

If you want a beautiful and unusual cake, then divide the dough into five identical pieces.

Cover them with foil and let them rest for 10 minutes. Then we start cooking.

Roll each of the pieces into a cake, grease with warm butter, lay dried fruits on top and overlap one on top of the other, as in the photo.

Starting from the edge, roll the cakes into one large "sausage", fastening the edges.

We will cut this "roll" in half.

We will get two such pink-shaped dough blanks.

Place them in oiled molds.

Let them stand for 40-45 minutes, the dough will rise again. And such lush blanks can be sent to the oven.

We bake at 170 degrees for 40-55 minutes, depending on your oven and the volume of Easter cakes.

Readiness is checked with a wooden stick.

We pierce in an inconspicuous place, if the stick remains dry and there are no traces of dough on it - it's ready!

Hint: if the top of the cakes is already starting to burn, and they are still damp inside, then cover the top with foil.

When they are ready, let cool and remove from the mold. Sprinkle powdered sugar on top and you're done!

Traditional Easter cakes

Regardless of which recipe you choose, there are common, centuries-old rules for making Easter cakes.

For Easter cakes take flour premium and be sure to sift. Yeast can be used both dry and pressed. But the latter is still preferable. Sugar should be fine, and egg yolks should be bright. All this is necessary in order for the cake to turn out rich, soft, beautiful yellow.

Sometimes vanillin or vanilla sugar, nutmeg, citrus peel or cinnamon are added to the dough. With them, baking will be even more fragrant.

Easter cakes do not tolerate haste. The dough should rise at least three times: when the dough is being prepared ( batter), when kneaded and when laid out in forms.

Easter cakes are baked in special high forms. They need to be generously lubricated with warmed, but not liquid butter or vegetable oil. Edges or bottom can be lined parchment paper. Forms are filled with dough half or a third.

Easter cakes are baked in a well-heated oven, as a rule, for 1.5–2 hours (depending on size). Sometimes, before baking, a wooden stick (splinter) is placed in the center of the cake so that the dough rises and bakes evenly. After an hour, they take it out: if the splinter is dry, the cake is ready. If not, send it to the oven for another 30-40 minutes.

Ready Easter cakes are decorated with protein glaze, dyed millet and various confectionery toppings.

To prepare the protein glaze, beat the chilled egg whites (they usually remain during the preparation of the dough) at high speed with powdered sugar: for 1 protein you need ½ cup of powdered sugar. At the end, add a teaspoon of lemon juice.

Delicious Easter cakes are prepared by hundreds of the most different ways using all sorts of variations from the same (or similar) products: wheat flour, sugar, butter, eggs, yeast, milk, kefir, sour cream, ryazhenka. In their classic form, they are certainly yeast-based, made from a special, Easter test. And the housewives pay special attention to this test. For example, knead it at least three times, allowing it to rise well. And some, especially meticulous housewives, also sing to him for the mood))

The five most commonly used ingredients in Easter cake recipes are:

Yeast cakes can be prepared with sponge and by non-dip methods. Both will be detailed in the selected recipe. But before you take on the dough, be sure to check the quality of the yeast. To do this, make a dough: dilute sugar and yeast in warm water. And leave it in a warm place. If after about twenty minutes a fluffy cap appears over the mass, everything is in order with the yeast and they can be used. And they can be both fresh and dry.

For Easter cakes, it is customary to take special cylindrical shapes. Before Easter, you can usually buy paper, disposable ones. They are one third filled with dough. And before going into the oven, they should stand warm in order to rise a little more. Then their tops are smeared with oil or an egg to give shine. After baking from paper forms, they can not be removed. And according to tradition, coat the surface with sugar or milky white icing.

It is also allowed to cook Easter cakes according to recipes without yeast. For example, on kefir with soda or baking powder. Baking is the same lush and less high-calorie.

The five most low-calorie recipes for Easter cakes:

Easter cake is one of the main symbols of Orthodox Easter. He personifies the church bread, which Jesus shared at the table with his twelve apostles. The central place of this table always remained empty. And they put bread in front of him. Later, the tradition of bringing bread to the temple took root. And the bread began to symbolize the resurrection of Christ, the victory over death. However, Easter cakes were part of the diet of the ancient Slavs long before Christianity appeared on their territory. And then they symbolized something completely different. The very word "Kulich" is derived from "Kalach". In ancient Russia, the word "cola" meant "sun", and "cha" - "child". The tradition of presenting bread, treating it was popular among the Slavs and also symbolized life, victory over death.

Hello dear connoisseurs culinary arts! One of the most important holidays of the Orthodox Church is approaching - Easter.

By tradition, Easter cake is baked in the oven, and on top it is covered with sugar and egg whites. Our family has its own proven recipe, according to which my grandmother cooked.

Since the yeast cake starts, allow enough cooking time to allow the dough to rise twice. There is - it cooks faster, but, in my opinion, it turns out not so lush and rich. More like a cupcake.

The filling gives a special piquancy to the festive treat. And traditional raisins now you can not be limited. In the course are candied fruits, nuts, dried cherry, dried apricots, prunes, chocolate chips, citrus zest and coconut flakes.

It is only important not to overdo it with the filling, so that later you will not be surprised why the dough falls off and the pastries turn out wet. Today I will share with you a "secret" family recipe Easter cake and for a change - a few more interesting options for Easter baking.
