I made Vanochka for New Year today, turned out awesome, as always when following your recipes. Thank you for making the holiday table way prettier!

I am finally starting to bake the fabulous Christmas bakes from 2021 - baked this one today. I applied the no-knead method to the recipe and results were deliciously wonderful. A nice soft interior with lovely raisins scattered throughout, with delicately crunchy sliced almonds and a sprinkling of powdered sugar for added sweetness. Hoping I can bake more from the 2021 Christmas set soon. (#256) Photos have been posted.

I also overdid it with the almonds; I personally think it looks best like that. Thank you for the recipe!

very nice

Around 4:20, you smacked the dough back down to pick up a fallen raisin. Very satisfying to know you leave no raisin behind

[@tonyspeedy2837]

Man You are very good!!!

[@tonyspeedy2837]

I am originally from Vanochka country. Now I am living in the US.

[@tonyspeedy2837]

Thank You!!! I have defected during Brezhnev era and I think that the life improved just because being out of there. My understanding is that You are also Eastern European. Write me something about Yourself and I will respond!!!!! You are very good at what You do!!!! I just have a problem to make a sourdough starter. I don't know if it's climate or me, but probably me... I thank You for reading this! Oh and by the way I am Czechoslovakian. Sincerely Tony

I find it interesting that you are one of the very few English speakers that can say Vánočka like a native would.

[@ChainBaker]

I'm Latvian 😉

[@kekort2]

Could you make the dough in a bread maker?

[@ChainBaker]

You could definitely make it in a mixer, but I'm not sure about a bread making machine as I have not had any experience with one of them

[@RolloTonéBrownTown]

Just bake it in oven guy

[@helenloyd7193]

I’m making vanocka for 60 years have to convert from fresh yeast to dry 55 years ago,this is not the real thing, believe me as a real Czech’s we have to laugh

[@RolloTonéBrownTown]

Those elves are simultaneously cursed and adorable. But seriously, this bread reminds me of that "Shtolen" bread. Stolen? Anyway, this is very similar except this is braided.

[@ChainBaker]

Stollen is quite a lot heavier and contains a lot more fruit and stuff. This is like 'stollen-light' 😅

[@RolloTonéBrownTown]

@@ChainBaker The few times I've had it at xmas parties it's been pretty dry. I can see it being delicious if done correctly. Thanks

[@1DrBar]

@@RolloTonéBrownTown I'm Czech and my mother was a fairly accomplished baker. She often lamented that she could not get close to what the Czech Vánocka was because of the wheat available in the West. I do remember that it was subtly different but liked it both ways. It however is in NO way similar to stolen.
