Happy Holidays, dear friends!
Here’s a delicious stollen I made for Christmas Eve. In Bulgaria, December 24 is the last day of the Christmas fast and even though most people don’t fast, all the dishes at the dinner are made without animal products. That’s why I made this Christmas bread without using animal products. I got inspired by this recipe, but I made some changes, and I also used einkorn flour instead. I have talked about einkorn flour before, it’s an ancient type of wheat and it’s supposed to be a little bit healthier. The recipe turned out really good. How are you celebrating the holidays?

Looks lovely. Christmas is very hot in New Zealand and Stollen looks great, but in NZ its a good time to eat more of salads than bread because it gets hot and humid.
I love the Stollen, it looks delicious.
Thank you very much, Pamela! I hope you had wonderful holidays. I wish I’d be able to experience the summer Christmas at least once and decorate my Christmas tree with flowers.
Your stollen looks so festive!!!! Very beautiful and I believe tasty as well. I should try the recipe.
Thank you very much for your kind words!
I have never had this before but it looks tasty
It’s really good, I hope you’ll have a chance to try it.
May the New Year bring you happiness and health to you and your whole family!

My holiday today is fun because I gather with all the families of my siblings and my mother too, but it would be more fun if I could eat your homemade stollen too, Ellie.
This is wonderful, being with your loved ones is the best! I wish you a great New Year 2019!
Thanks. Wish you all the best too, Ellie.
A great meal to try. Merry Christmas to you and loved ones from Lake Chares Louisiana USA.

I don’t like desert because I am a freak
Nobody is perfect, haha. More sweets for me!
isn’t fasting when you don’t eat at all and only drink water?
Not sure Ellie, this looks like what we calla fruit cake perhaps.
Merry Christmas!
I guess every country has some type of Christmas bread with dried fruit and nuts. This is the German version, it’s a bit denser than cake. Merry Christmas!
Great festive post!!!!!!!
Thank you very much, dear friend! Merry Christmas!
