Easter cake Paraskina paska in a bread maker

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 5 hr 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Take 160 ml of milk, add 160 g of butter, 100 g of sugar, 0.5 tsp. salt and heat until the oil dissolves (do not bring to a boil!). Pour 2 tsp into a bucket. dry yeast and 400 g flour. Pour warm liquid on top and run the dough kneading program. The mass gathers into a kind of thick kolobok of irregular shape, even somewhat torn.

2. STEP 2

   

   Leave the dough to rise for 1 – 1.5 hours. If the room is cool, then move the bucket to a warm place.

3. STEP 3

   

   Take the eggs and separate the whites from the yolks. Grind about 50 g of sugar with the yolks and a pinch of turmeric, and add 0.5 tsp to the whites. citric acid and beat them until a stable foam, gradually adding about 50 g of sugar. When the dough in the bucket rises almost to the edge, we start the kneading program again, the dough deflates like a balloon, and we add the quickly mashed yolks and wait until they are mixed into the dough.

4. STEP 4

   

   The yolks are mixed in, we interrupt the program and turn on a new batch so that we have time to add the whites at low speed of the mixer. Cover the bucket with a towel to prevent white flakes from accidentally scattering throughout the kitchen. After adding the proteins, the dough is held in the semblance of a kolobok only due to the speed of the mixer, and becomes quite liquid after the blade stops.

5. STEP 5

   

   If necessary, you can add flour immediately after mixing in the whites, but the dough should remain quite liquid and should not stick together.

6. STEP 6

   

   Take 160 g of additives (dried apricots, raisins, candied fruits), mix with 2 g of vanillin and flour and add to the dough.

7. STEP 7

   

   After all the additives are well mixed in, turn off the oven and leave the dough to rise for another 1 - 1.5 hours. We start baking when the dough reaches a little more than 2/3 of the bucket.

8. STEP 8

   

   Grease the top before baking. Bake for 1 hour. You can immediately set the baking for 1 hour 10 minutes, look after an hour and leave it a little longer if someone likes it more tanned.

9. STEP 9

   

   The cake is stored for about 5 days. After a couple of days, the cake ripens and only becomes tastier.
