How to Make Altdeutsche Brotchen
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the rum (if using), vanilla extract, and milk.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the cinnamon, baking powder, and flour.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the slivered almonds, orange zest, and raisins.
- Fill the greased muffin cups about halfway full.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.
- Let the Altdeutsche Brotchen cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
