- •1 ½ cups milk
- •½ cup sugar
- •1 ½ teaspoons salt
- •2 teaspoons lemon zest
- •¾ cup butter
- •1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast
- •1 teaspoon white sugar
- •¼ cup warm water
- •2 eggs
- •2 egg yolks
- •5 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- •1 cup raisins
- •½ cup chopped nuts
- •1 egg, beaten
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, heat milk until hot, but not boiling; mix in 1/2 cup sugar, salt, lemon zest, and butter. Remove from heat, and cool slightly. In a small bowl, mix together yeast, 1 teaspoon sugar, and 1/4 cup water; stir into milk. Beat in 2 eggs and egg yolks. Mix in 3 cups flour. Cover, and let rise in a warm place.
- Mix in the raisins and nuts. Gradually mix in enough of the remaining flour to form a soft dough. Place dough in a well-oiled bowl, cover, and set aside to rise.
- Divide dough into 3 balls. Roll each ball out into a thick log, braid, and tuck the ends under. Place on a large cookie sheet, and set aside to rise one more time.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Brush beaten egg over the dough. It gives a shine to it.
- Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes.
