Stollen Bites image

These are bite-sized stollen, buttery, fruity, absolutely delicious! Recipe comes from the King Arthur Flour Baker's Catalogue with my slight modifications. I felt they called for way too much fruit. Times are an estimate and do not include rising time.

Time 48m

Yield 40 cookies, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup lukewarm water
2 teaspoons instant yeast
1/4 cup dried pineapple, 1/4 inch dice
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup candied cherry
2 tablespoons rum
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons softened butter
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup nonfat dry milk powder
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon orange zest
1/2 cup toasted almond, chopped
1/2 cup butter (1/2 cup)
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Starter:.
  • Mix flour and yeast in a medium bowl. Add water and mix, let sit for 1/2 hour to an hour.
  • Fruit:.
  • Mix together and set aside to allow fruit to absorb the liquor.
  • Dough:.
  • Combine starter and dough ingredients, except almonds. Mix and knead to make a soft, shiny, elastic dough. towards the end, knead in the fruits (along with any liquid) and almonds. Allow to rise covered for 1-1/2 to 2 hours. Turn dough onto surface and divide into 40 pieces, roll each into ball. Place on parchment-lined sheets. Cover and let rise for about 45 minutes. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 18 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool 10 minutes. Toss with melted butter and then confectioner's sugar. Cool completely before wrapping and storing. Keep well for a week at room temperature. Freeze for longer storage.
  • Note: I added some almond paste and put pieces in the middle of the balls before putting to rise the second time. Also, I used the green candied cherries for good color.

The stollen bites were a bit too unhealthy to eat, but they still had a good flavor. I think I'll try finding a healthier recipe next time.

The stollen bites were a bit too bland for my taste, but they still had a good texture. I think I'll try adding more spices next time, maybe some cinnamon or nutmeg.

The stollen bites were a bit too dense for my taste, but they still had a good flavor. I think I'll try using a different type of yeast next time, maybe a sourdough starter.

The stollen bites were a bit too crumbly for my taste, but they still had a good flavor. I think I'll try using a different type of flour next time, maybe a bread flour.

The stollen bites were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding more moisture next time, maybe some melted butter or milk.

I substituted dried cranberries for the raisins and they turned out great! The stollen bites were still moist and flavorful, and the cranberries added a nice tartness.
