There is still time to get this one locked down. 75 minutes is all you need. That's less than a game of football. PLUS, you can be as haphazard as you want with the icing drizzle. The messier the better.

Ingredients

For the dough:

  • 250 ml milk
  • 30 g fresh yeast
  • 70 g SweetFamily organic sugar
  • 600 g spelt flour (type 630)
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 2 eggs (size M)
  • 80 g soft butter
  • flour to work with
  • butter for the mould

For the filling:

  • 200 g cashews
  • 75 g SweetFamily organic
  • Icing sugar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • finely grated zest of 1 organic orange
  • 200 g double cream cheese

For the icing:

  • 70 g SweetFamily organic icing sugar
  • approx. 2 tbsp. orange juice

Instructions

  1. Warm the milk to lukewarm. Crumble the yeast and dissolve it with 1 tbsp. organic sugar. Cover and leave to rise for 10 minutes.
  2. Knead the remaining organic sugar, spelt flour, salt, eggs, butter and yeast milk until smooth. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for approx. 75 minutes until the dough has significantly increased in volume. In the meantime, roast the cashews in a pan without fat. Leave to cool on a plate, then chop. Mix icing sugar, cinnamon and orange zest with cream cheese, stir in cashews except for 1 tbsp. Divide the dough on some flour into 16 portions and flatten each. Spread the filling in the centre and close the dough around the filling to form balls. Place in a greased springform pan with a ring insert (26-28 cm diameter), sprinkle with remaining cashews. Cover and leave to rise for another 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 180 °C top/bottom heat. Bake the wreath for approx. 35 minutes until golden brown. Remove and leave to cool on a cooling rack. Sieve the organic icing sugar and mix with the orange juice to make a glaze. Remove the wreath from the tin, sprinkle with it and leave to dry.
  4. Decorate the wreath with sugar Easter eggs as desired.
