So an alternative was needed! Years ago I already baked a Almondstollen for them, but Almondstollen always has the tendency to get very dry. And that is not so surprising when you take out the ingredients that keeps it moist like raisins for example! But nevertheless I take the challange once again and baked a Marzipan Almond Stollen this year.<\/p>\n<p>The basis for the recipe is the proofed and true recipe of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hefe-und-mehr.de\/2009\/12\/christstollen\/\">my Christstollen<\/a>, of course without the raisins and with more almonds. For moisture I use a water roux and added grated Marzipan as well, which adds a nice flavour, too. The fine almond flavour get enhanced from some Tonka bean, and for the classical stollen flavour I grounded candid orange peel in the food processor as fine as possible.<\/p>\n<p>After two weeks of ripening we tested the stollen, and it was still moist. Not as moist as Christstollen, but so much better then every Almond stollen I ever baked before! And it taste very good, too! Maybe I have to bake to different kinds of stollen from now on\u2026<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Marzipan Almond Stollen<\/span><\/h1>\n<p>ergibt 2 Stollen von je 750g<\/p>\n<p>Soaker<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>200g almonds, chopped a<\/li>\n<li>Juice of 2 Oranges<\/li>\n<li>20g Orange liqueur<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Water roux<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>30 g flour Type 550<\/li>\n<li>150g Milk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Preferment<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>100g flour Type 550<\/li>\n<li>100g cold milk (ca. 15\u00b0C)<\/li>\n<li>35g fresh yeast<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Dough<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Water roux<\/li>\n<li>preferment<\/li>\n<li>400g flour Type 550<\/li>\n<li>150g frozen Marzipan<\/li>\n<li>5g Salt<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 Tl <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hefe-und-mehr.de\/2012\/10\/winterwrze\/\">Winter spice<\/a> or a mixture of cinnamon, cardamom, allspice and star anise<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 Tonka bean<\/li>\n<li>75g sugar<\/li>\n<li>250g Butter, soft<\/li>\n<li>50g candid orange peel (chopped as fine as possible in the food processor)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Filling<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>150g Marzipan<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Coating<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>75g Butter<\/li>\n<li>100g sugar<\/li>\n<li>100g powdered sugar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The day before: Mix almonds with orange juice and liqueur and let them soak for 24 hours<\/p>\n<p>The next mornig: Mix flour, milk and yeast for the preferment.
