Must and raisin sweet bread with Nutella®
INGREDIENTS for 10 portions
500 g Plain flour
250 g Must
50 g Water
30 g Butter
13 g Brewer's yeast
50 g Granulated sugar
85 g Raisins
Sweet white wine to taste
2 g Anise liqueur
10 g Salt
150 g Nutella® (15 g/portion)
To prepare this delicious recipe, 15g of Nutella® per person is enough to enjoy!
METHOD
- STEP 1
Soak the raisins in warm water for 10 minutes, drain them thoroughly and put them back to soak in the sweet wine, ensuring they are completely covered. Put the flour and sugar in a pile on the pastry board. Combine the must, water, anise liqueur and brewer's yeast in a bowl, mix thoroughly and gradually pour the mixture into the centre of the pile of flour and sugar, continuing to mix.
- STEP 2
Thoroughly mix it together to create a smooth, homogenous dough, then mix in the soft butter in small pieces and, once the fat has been absorbed, then add the salt. Drain the raisins and add them to the bread, forcefully mixing them together. Then put the dough aside to rise for about 2 hours. After this time has passed, shape it into a loaf, trying not to overwork the dough to avoid crushing the air inside. Then leave it to rise again until it doubles in volume. This takes at least 5 hours.
- STEP 3
Brush the surface with whisked egg and bake in a pre-heated to 160°C fan oven set for approximately 35 minutes.
- STEP 4
Use a wooden stick to check if it is done and extend baking time if necessary. Serve the bread in slices, spreading each with 15 g of Nutella®.
