Preparation steps

Combine the warmed milk and yeast in a mixing bowl and allow to sit for 5 minutes to one side.

Combine the flour, salt, sugar, mixed spice and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Add the butter, ground almonds, mixed candied peel and sultanas and mix well. Add the milk and yeast mixture to the bowl and stir well to form a dough.

Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes until even and smooth. Cover with a damp tea towel and leave to prove for 20 minutes.

After proving for 20 minutes, knock the dough back and knead again for 4-5 minutes. Shape the dough into an oval shape and transfer to a greased baking tray. Cover again with a damp tea towel and leave to prove in a warm place for 60 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (160 fan) | 350°F | gas 4.

Bake for 40-45 minutes until risen and golden on the outside. Remove and allow to cool on a wire rack.

Once cool, brush the top of the stollen all over with the warmed apricot jam before dusting heavily with icing sugar.
