During the Advent season, Christmas stollen is just as indispensable for me as Christmas cookies, an Advent calendar, a pyramid, an Advent wreath and cozy afternoons with coffee, treats and family in candle lights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the recipe my Mom was taught by her Mom and I learned it from my Mom. It stems from a Dr. Oetker recipe booklet called \"Klickgl\u00f6ckchen Heft\" from the 70's. For this recipe, I only adjusted the amount of yeast and the proofing times of the dough. If you prolong proofing, the dough is more aromatic and your baked goods are easier on the stomach because of the fermentation process during proofing. Additionally, the Christmas stollen keeps fresh and moist for longer (it doesn't dry out as quickly) if you let it proof for a longer time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if you never tried to make a yeasted dough or you're not having any experience with it, you shouldn't shy away from this recipe. It is very beginner friendly! This recipe rather uses time than warmth to let the dough rise, which makes handling the dough much easier. You don't have to \"activate\" the yeast, which means making a poolish of warm milk, sugar and yeast. You can easily \"kill\" your yeast in this step, if the milk was too hot. However, In this recipe, almost all of the ingredients are used (fridge) cold, so you won't run into this problem at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My baking schedule mostly looks like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Baking schedule:<\/strong><br>- in the evening (6 - 8 pm): make the dough, knead and let it proof for 2 hours<br>- 8 - 10 pm: refridgerate dough overnight<br>- next day, midmorning: form the stollen, let them proof and bake<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find more recipe inspiration for the Christmas and Advent season on \u201cbrutzel, brat &amp; knusper\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/brutzel-brat-und-knusper.eu\/en\/recipe-key\/weihnachten\/\" data-type=\"recipe-key\" data-id=\"143\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wish you so much fun baking this recipe yourself!
