Ingredients

  • 150 g Hazelnuts
  • 50 g candied orange peel
  • 50 g candied lemon peel
  • 50 g dried cherries
  • 50 g Raisins
  • 40 ml rum
  • 400 g flour
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • 100 g sugar
  • 1 untreated orange (zest)
  • 200 g quark
  • 200 g soft butter
  • powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Roast the hazelnuts in a hot pan. Then place them on a kitchen towel and rub off the skins. Roughly chop.

  2. 2.

    Chop the candied orange peel, candied lemon peel, dried cherries, and raisins, then mix with rum and let sit.

  3. 3.

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) with both fan and top heating.

  4. 4.

    Sift the flour with baking powder onto a work surface. Form a well in the center and add sugar, orange zest, drained quark, and 150 g butter. Roughly chop and quickly knead all ingredients into a smooth dough. Fold in the fruit and hazelnuts, then shape the dough into 3-4 small stollen. Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper (optionally cover with a folded strip of foil to keep the shape). Bake for about 45 minutes. If the stollen darkens too much, cover with foil.

  5. 5.

    Remove the stollen from the oven and brush with remaining melted butter. Generously dust with powdered sugar and let cool.
