Julekake #1 (Baked on a Sheet)
- 1 kg flour
- 200 g sugar
- 34 teaspoon cardamom
- 150 g margarine
- 23 liter whole milk
- 50 g cake yeast
- 150 g raisins
- 80 g candied peel (finely sliced)
- 1 egg yolk
- Use the sponge method incorporating all the liquid ingredients and 2 Tbs of the margarine.
- Let it ferment well.
- Add the remainder of materials and knead in well.
- Julekake dough that will be baked on a sheet needs to be firm so it doesnt spread out while baking.
- Add the raisins and peel last and knead well in so they are distributed through the loaf.
- The loaves should be allowed to rise slowly in a relatively cold room.
- The loaves should be kept at a modest size to allow them to be light but fine pored.
- Brush the loaves with egg yoke diluted out with some water.
- Bake at 200 C for 40-50 minutes.
