      Title: BOBBIE'S ORIGINAL STOLLEN ABM VERSION
 Categories: German, Bread
      Yield: 1 Loaf
 
    1/3 c  Milk; warm
  2 1/2 tb Water; warm
      1 tb Dark rum
    1/3 c  Butter; softened
      1    Egg
  2 1/2 c  All-purpose flour; divided
      3 tb Sugar
    1/2 ts Salt
  1 1/2 ts Yeast
    1/2 c  Raisins
    1/2 c  Almonds; chopped
    1/2 c  Candied fruits; chopped
      1 ts Lemon rind; grated
 
  Put the yeast, dry and liquid ingredients except the fruits and
  almonds in the machine's bread pan in the order specified by the
  manufacturer. Turn the machine on the DOUGH or RISE setting so that
  the machine will mix, knead, and allow the dough to rise once. Add
  the fruits and almonds towards the end of the mixing cycle so that
  they do not get all chopped up. After the dough has risen, turn it
  onto a floured surface. Shape it into a 6 1/2 x 8-inch oval. With the
  side of your hand, crease the oval down its length, just off center.
  Fold the smaller side over the larger side. Place the loaf on a
  baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cover the dough with a towel
  and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size; about 1 hour.
  Brush the top lightly with egg white glaze or skim milk. Bake at 350
  F for about 30 mins, until the top is golden brown and the bottom
  sounds hollow when tapped. This recipe makes 16 slices.
