This is a Bavarian Easter bread. It's similar to Italian Easter panettone. Easter bread can be baked in many shapes. I chose the simply round type, and in order to keep it perfectly round I used a spring form without the bottom as a mold. I baked it on my baking stone for a nice crust.

Ingredients beyond basic medium-soft yeast dough:

raisins and currants (I also add cranberries) -- all rum-soaked
vanilla
lemon zest
saffron
lemon oil
almond oil
ground almonds
rum

Eat it plain, with butter and or jam.

This here is a about a 3.5 pounder:
