Time 2h11m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
¾ cup white sugar
1 egg
3 hard-boiled egg yolks, mashed
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup ground almonds
2 teaspoons lemon zest, or to taste
1 beaten egg
¼ cup water
3 tablespoons unflavored gelatin
½ cup cherry preserves
½ cup apricot preserves
¼ cup candied cherries, halved, or more as needed
¼ cup sliced almonds

Steps:

  • Combine 1 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons butter, sugar, and egg in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Beat in mashed egg yolks. Add flour, ground almonds, and lemon zest. Knead into a dough. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll out 2/3 of the dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle the size of the baking sheet. Lay onto the prepared baking sheet. Roll remaining dough into finger-thick rolls. Press dough rolls onto the cake in a diamond-shaped pattern. Brush rolls with beaten egg.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Pour 1/4 cup water into a saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin powder on top. Let stand until softened, about 1 minute. Place over low heat; stir constantly until granules are completely dissolved, about 3 minutes.
  • Heat cherry and apricot preserves in 2 small pots over low heat until hot. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve. Mix half of the dissolved gelatin into each flavor. Alternate filling the diamond shapes of the cake with the 2 different flavors. Arrange sliced almonds and candied cherries into flower shapes on top.

From polka-deli.com
  • Biała kiełbasa. No Polish Easter dinner is complete without their specially made sausage. Typically known as Biala Kielbasa, this dish is the most popular Polish recipe out there.
  • Deviled Stuffed Eggs. Any traditional Polish native can vouch for their love of eggs. In fact, eggs are a common sight in most Polish Easter traditions.
  • Żurek. Our next recipe on the list is a famous companion of the Biala Kielbasa. Zurek is a thick sour soup that is often served with some hard boiled egg.
  • Galaretka z Kurczaka. Galaretka z Kurczaka or simply put, chicken inside gelatin is a unique dish that we only see in Poland. As the name suggests, this Easter recipe contains an unusual mixture of chicken soup and gelatin.
  • Sałatka Jarzynowa. No dinner table is complete without a proper salad and when it’s Easter, that salad better be the Sałatka Jarzynowa or vegetable salad.
  • Babka. The Babka is a well-known sweet bundt cake that is the perfect dessert after a heavy meal. What makes this cake stand out amongst others is its special rum syrup topped with vanilla icing.
  • Baranek Wielkanocny. Much like the Babka, the Baranek Wielkanocny is also a common dessert we see on Polish Easter dinners. This is similar to the Babka, in the sense that it is also a bundt cake.
  • Śledź. This Polish Easter food is not only loved by the Polish but it reaches inside the homes of the Dutch and Danish. Śledź is a fish dish recipe that involves perfectly sliced fillets of herring covered in some vinegar and oil.
  • Makowiec. Ever seen a swiss jam roll? Well, the Makowiec is a Polish Easter food that looks just like that, minus the cream. The recipe uses poppy seeds to make a special dough just like the babka, which is then baked into different shapes and sizes.
  • Chrzan. If you’re planning a Polish Easter party then you already know what we’re talking about. Chrzan or Horseradish is a vegetable commonly used in Poland for most dishes.
