BASIC BABKA
This Jewish treat is a hybrid of sweet roll, swirl bread, and coffee cake. It's a sweet yeast dough that you roll out, fill, and roll up like a jelly roll, then cut, twist, and bake in a loaf pan. Don't worry: It looks fancy (and it IS a little messy), but it's seriously easy to do. And once you get the dough down, you can try it with other fillings.

Steps:
- Stir white sugar, 1/4 cup butter, and salt into hot milk in a small bowl until butter is melted and mixture is lukewarm. In the work bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle, sprinkle yeast over warm water; stir to dissolve.
- Stir milk mixture into yeast mixture. Add 2 eggs and 2 1/2 cups of the flour; beat on high until combined. With mixer on low, add remaining 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup at a time.
- Switch to the dough hook; mix until dough leaves sides of bowl, about 5 minutes. Set dough in a large, lightly greased bowl, turning dough to coat top. Cover with a towel and let rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Prepare walnut filling while dough rises. Lightly beat 3 eggs in a large bowl. Stir in brown sugar, 1/3 cup melted butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Fold in walnuts.
- Punch dough down. Turn dough out onto a large, lightly floured surface, cover with the bowl, and let rest 10 minutes. Line three 9x5-inch loaf pans with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on long sides.
- Divide dough into thirds; roll each third out to a 12-inch square on a lightly floured surface. Spoon 1/3 of the walnut filling onto each dough square and spread to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Roll up each square tightly as for a jelly roll. Pinch ends and seams closed to seal. With your palms, roll logs back and forth until uniformly round.
- With a sharp knife or dough scraper, cut 1 log in half lengthwise to form 2 striped strands. Working quickly, twist strands loosely together with cut sides facing out, making 2 or 3 wide, horizontal twists. Fit into one of the prepared pans, patting back any loose filling and tucking ends under, if needed. It might look like a mess now, but it comes out beautifully!
- Repeat with remaining logs and pans. Cover pans with a towel and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Loaves should not rise above top edges of pans.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Brush loaf tops with remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter.
- Bake loaves until puffed, well browned, and a thermometer inserted in centers registers 200 degrees F (93 degrees C), 35 to 45 minutes. Tent with foil if tops brown before loaves are done. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, then use parchment to lift from pans and transfer to a wire rack.
- Cool completely, about 1 hour. Glaze if desired, then slice crosswise to serve.

Steps:
- Heat the milk; stir in the butter until melted; cool to lukewarm. Proof the yeast in the warm water.
- Beat the eggs, egg yolks, and sugar until thick. Add the salt, grated rinds, vanilla, and Grand Marnier. Add the milk-butter mixture to the egg mixture. Stir in the yeast.
- Add the flour, a cupful at a time, mixing with a wooden spoon. The dough should not be dry, but it should not be sticky. Too much flour will make a dry, crumbly cake. Add the almonds and raisins.
- Turn the dough onto a floured board and knead for about 5 minutes, until dough comes away from your hand. Butter a very large bowl and put dough in bowl. Cover and let rise until doubled in bulk. Punch down and let rise a second time until almost doubled.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter the pans generously. (You can sprinkle pans with a tablespoon of sugar if you wish.) Divide the dough into 3 portions. Arrange evenly on the pans and cover loosely. Let rise to top of pans.
- Bake cakes in oven for 30 to 45 minutes, until golden brown. There should be a hollow sound when you tap the top with your knuckles. Cool for 5 minutes in the pans, then turn out onto racks to cool.
POLISH BABKA, ROBERT STRYBEL, NO-KNEAD, EASY
A part of our Polish Christmas Eve Wilia. Very easy, no kneading. This is Robert Strybel's (Warsaw correspondent for the Polish News) recipe for an easy yeast-raised Babka. It has a solid, yet airy, bread-like texture and lemony taste. From start to finish, this may take up to 3-1/2 hours. A long recipe because of the very detailed instructions, but quite simple. I've tried many Babka recipes; so far this is the one I like best.

Steps:
- In a large bowl, mash the yeast cake with the sugar (note: the compressed yeast cake can be substituted with a package of active dry yeast; to activate, follow the directions on the package).
- Beat the 3 eggs and add to the yeast mixture.
- Heat the milk to very warm and dissolve the butter in it. Let cool slightly. Add to the yeast/egg mixture and add the flour, salt, grated lemon rind, vanilla extract and the dried fruit (I like cranberries, raisins, walnuts.) Mix well to blend all ingredients, but do not knead.
- Grease (here's where Kittencal's pan coating comes in handy, #78579) a 9-1/2 inch Babka pan, brioche mold, Bundt pan, or other tube pan and fill with the dough to about 1/3 full. (I use two 8" fluted babka pans.) Cover with cloth and let stand in warm place for about 2 hours (until the Babka dough has doubled in size.).
- Towards the end of the rising, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. When risen, place the Babka inside and bake it for about 40-45 minutes. (Note, if you use bakeware that is dark or colored on the outside, set the oven at 325 deg Fahrenheit.) It is fully baked when a wooden pick comes out clean. Should be a medium brown. If too light it will be underdone and damp.
- After baking, remove the Babka from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Carefully remove from pan and dust it with confectioner's sugar or glaze with icing.
- For the icing, combine the confectioner's sugar, lemon juice, and boiling water in a small bowl and mix together.
- If you glaze the Babka with the icing, sprinkle it with chopped walnuts, slivered almonds, raisins or finely chopped candied orange rind, before the icing sets.
- Let it cool completely before serving. Wrap leftovers tightly with plastic wrap for storage at room temperature. For longer storage, you can freeze the Babka, tightly sealed in a plastic bag.
- Cooking Tips: Soak dried fruits in brandy or Grand Marnier before using.

- Chocolate Babka (Dairy) Chocolate babka is undeniably one of the most popular iterations. Barbara Rolek's recipe calls for a canned chocolate filling, but if you can't find it (and don't feel like making a filling from scratch), take a cue from Uri Scheft, and spread the dough with Nutella, then sprinkle it with mini chocolate chips.
- Apricot Pistachio Babka (Pareve) This babka, from the cookbook Bubbe and Me in the Kitchen, marries Sephardic flavors of tart apricots and pistachios with a quintessentially Ashkenazi-style pastry.
- Cinnamon Babka (Dairy) For every chocolate babka devotee, there's someone else who swears that cinnamon babka is the best. Some recipes include raisins and/or chopped walnuts in the filling, though this one uses storebought cinnamon filling and whipped egg whites to achieve the bread's swirls.
- Cheese Babka (Diary) Eastern European Food Expert Barbara Rolek shares this recipe for Cheese Babka. A sweet cream cheese-based filling is swirled throughout the streusel topped pastry, which makes a perfect treat to enjoy with coffee.
- Savory Vegan Babka With Coriander, Basil and Sour Cashew Cream. Google "babka," or even "vegan babka" and you'll get loads of returns for the chocolate version.
- Gluten Free Chocolate Babka (Dairy) If you can't eat gluten, the notion of slicing into a babka and taking a bite may seem like the stuff of dreams.
