Rita's Russian Kulich
RITA’S RUSSIAN KULICH
Kulich is a sweet fruit-filled bread that is a
holiday tradition in Russian and Slavic
countries.
1 cup milk
2 extra large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/3 cup sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups light plain flour
1-1/2 teaspoons active dried yeast
When beep sounds, add:
1/3 cup raisins
1/2 cup dried mixed fruit
1/3 cup slivered or sliced almonds
Orange Glaze
1 cup sifted icing sugar
1 tablespoon softened butter or margarine
About 3 tablespoons orange liqueur or milk
Method
Into baking pan measure milk, eggs, butter, vanilla essence, sugar, salt and flour. Sprinkle yeast over
flour. Insert pan securely into unit and close lid. Select “MEDIUM” baking degree setting and “RAISIN
BREAD” course setting and then press “START”. When “beep” sounds after about 30 minutes, open lid
and add raisins, fruit and almonds. Close lid. The “COMPLETE” light will flash when bread is done.
Using oven gloves, remove pan from unit and pull out kneading rod. Turn bread out onto cooling rack.
Cool. Prepare “Orange Glaze” in a small bowl by stirring together icing sugar, butter and enough milk
to make a glaze consistency. Drizzle glaze over top of loaf, allowing it to drip down sides of bread.
