Note

Our bread/cake recipes are/were usually developed for a specific mould. Please select the appropriate quantity for your tin in our portion calculator: 

20cm loaf tin corresponds to approx. 5 portions 
25cm loaf tin corresponds to approx. 10 portions 
30cm loaf tin corresponds to approx. 18 portions 
Batzen tin corresponds to approx. 7 portions 
Mini loaf tin corresponds to approx. 8 portions 

The baking time may also need to be adjusted, but cannot be converted across the board. A little help: When the bread/cake looks ready, you can either test it with a stick or carefully remove it from the tin with a baking glove and tap the bottom of the loaf. If it sounds hollow, the bread is most likely baked through.

Bake the bread

1
Put the flour in a bowl and form a dimple. Preheat the oven to 170°C convection oven.
2
Add the yeast, milk and sugar to the well, mix lightly and leave to rise for a few minutes.
3
Add the sultanas, egg, salt and butter and knead into a smooth dough. Then leave to rest, covered, for an hour.
4
Shape the dough into a loaf and leave to rise in the tin for a further 30 minutes.
5
For the egg spread whisk the egg yolk and milk and brush the sultana bread with it. Bake for 30 minutes.
