German Easter Bread Recipe

Last year we celebrated Easter in Bavaria. I bought a traditional Easter bread at the bakery, similar to. Then I decided to cook at home – I found a recipe on a German website – the recipe is listed in the cherished notebook – a wonderful muffin!!! Of course, it’s not a cake – it’s dessert bread made for breakfast, but bread from the bakery stretched for 2 days! I want to share with you – Easter is coming soon, and I am sure this bread will take its rightful place next to the cakes. There is a recipe with this name on the website, but the recipe and the number of ingredients are different. Are you trying?
