Instructions:

First, prepare a dampfl. To do this, heat 100 ml of milk with 2 tablespoons of sugar and the yeast (only lukewarm, so that the yeast is not overheated and the dough rises nicely). Mix with flour and let rise covered in a warm place for about 30 minutes.

Then knead the yeast dough with butter, yolks, remaining sugar, raisins and half of the hazelnuts to a smooth dough. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.

Now grind the dough into 3 equal pieces and form the resulting balls into rolls about 30 cm long. Weave a Striezel from these strands and place it on a baking tray lined with baking paper and let the Striezel rest for another 20 minutes.

Then mix egg yolk and milk and brush the Striezel with it. Sprinkle with the remaining nuts and bake the Easter plait at 170 °C for about 35 minutes.
