Recipe Ingredients: 4 Cup Flour
3/4 Cup Sugar
1 Package Dry yeast
1 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 Teaspoon Cardamom
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1/4 Teaspoon Grated nutmeg
2/3 Cup Milk
1/2 Cup Unsalted butter
1/4 Cup Water
2 Eggs
1 Cup Chopped mixed candied fruit
1/2 Cup Raisins
1/2 Cup Choped walnuts
Cooking Directions: Combine 1 cup of the flour, the sugar, yeast, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg in a mixing bowl. Place the milk, butter, and water in a saucepan and heat over low heat until warm (120-130 degrees) stirring until the butter melts. Gradually add the warm milk mixture to the flour. Beat until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, and 1 cup flour and beat 2 minutes longer. Add the candied fruit, raisins, and walnuts. Stir in as much of the remaining flour as possible. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and knead in remaining flour. Knead for 10 minutes, until dough is smooth and elastic. Place dough in greased bowl, cover, and let rise about 1 1/2 hours or until double in bulk. Punch dough down and divide in half. Knead each piece for 1-2 minutes. Cover and let rest 10 minutes. Roll each out to an 11 x 7-inch oval. Fold over in half. Place on greased cookie sheets, cover, and let rise about 45 minutes. Bake in a preheated 375 oven 25-30 minutes.
