Zubereitung von Greek Christmas Bread

  1. Prepare the quick yeast dough (refer to recipe #307801 for details - 1/2 recipe).
  2. Remove stems from 1 cup dried figs and cut into quarters. If figs are dry, soak in hot water for 30 minutes, drain, and pat dry.
  3. Place 1 teaspoon anise seeds in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Process for 1 minute.
  4. Add the quartered figs, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, zest of 1 orange, and 1/2 teaspoon anise extract to the food processor.
  5. Pulse until ingredients are evenly chopped.
  6. Add 1/2 cup raisins and pulse just until combined.
  7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into an 18x4-inch rectangle.
  8. Spread the fig and walnut mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  9. Brush the edges of the dough with water.
  10. Starting at one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log at a slight angle, creating a tapered shape.
  11. Place the loaf seam-side down on an ungreased baking sheet.
  12. Gently twist the dough and coil it into a snail shape, tucking the tapered end underneath.
  13. Cover the loaf with lightly oiled plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 25 minutes.
  14. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  15. Brush the loaf lightly with water.
  16. Bake for 5 minutes at 400°F (200°C).
  17. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 20 minutes.
  18. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool slightly.
  19. Brush the warm bread with 2 tablespoons of honey.
