In a large bowl, add flour, sugar, stollen spice, lemon zest and a pinch of salt. Mix well. Then add butter, eggs and yeast and milk mixture. Knead for 5-8 minutes, then place back in the bowl and allow to rise in warm place or until dough doubled in size.
Step 4
Once dough has risen, place it on floured surface and knead it lightly. Then add drained fruits and almonds and work them into the dough.

Roll dough out into a 30x20cm rectangle. Form 30cm long oval and place in the middle of rolled out dough. Fold one side of dough over the marzipan and then then the other. Using the sides of your palms push down along the sides of the “bump” in the middle all along.
