Instructions

Step 1

Melt the butter in a pan and add the milk. Pour the mixture into a mixing bowl and stir in the yeast. Add cottage cheese, sugar, salt and wheat flour (keep some of the wheat flour for later).

Step 2

Beat the dough together well. Gently mix in the nuts and the prunes. Cover the dough with a lid or aluminum foil and place it in a warm place for approximately 45 minutes.

Step 3

Take the dough out on a floured table and knead it lightly. Add the rest of the flour. Divide the dough into 3 pieces and roll each piece into a sausage (approximately 40 cm).

Step 4

Merge them into a "braid". Let the "braid" rest on the baking paper or a greased baking tray for approximately ½ hour. Brush with egg and sprinkle with sugar.

Step 5

Bake the fruit bread at the bottom of the oven.
