  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 1 egg + 1 egg (size M)
  • 50 g butter + 60 g butter
  • 2 TABLESPOONS Cinnamon
  • 1 package Vanilla sugar
  • 300 g cold marzipan paste
  • baking paper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Aluminium foil

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the yeast dough and let it rise for about 40 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mix cinnamon, sugar and vanilla sugar. Coarsely grate the marzipan. Whisk the egg and stir into the marzipan with a fork. Melt butter and let it cool down.

  3. 3

    Knead the dough briefly on a little flour. Roll out to a rectangle (approx. 35 x 65 cm). Spread with 2⁄3 lukewarm butter. Spread the marzipan mixture on top, leaving an approx. 2 cm wide rim all around.

  4. 4

    Spread marzipan lightly with a spoon. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture over it. Roll up the dough from the long side.

  5. 5

    Place the roll of dough on a sheet of baking paper and almost cut through lengthwise. Carefully twist the strands of dough into a cord and lay them in a wreath. Press the ends together. Lift onto a baking tray with the baking paper.

  6. 6

    Spread with the rest of the butter. Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 20 minutes.

  7. 7

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Bake the wreath in a hot oven for 25-30 minutes. After approx. 20 minutes, cover with aluminium foil if necessary. Pull the wreath and paper off the baking tray and let it cool down.
