Orange Easter Bread with raisins

This post is also available in german

I am waiting eagerly for spring, winter is long and cold this year. 2 days ago it snowed again and I hope it was the last rearing of the winter. The little birds are already waiting for the spring, sun and the first lush green. As long as I wait I stand in the kitchen and bake this yummy orange easter bread. It became soft, juicy and fruity just as I loves it. Yeast wreath (Hefezopf in german) already existed when I was very small. My grandma always baked orange easter bread for us, I remember the taste very well.

Sweet Orange Easter bread is a typical pastry that we always have at Easter. This year it will give my orange easter bread. I love the combination of biscuit and orange.
