Step 2

Choose the mixing method. In my case, the bread machine. First add the liquid ingredients to the bucket, then the dry ones. Select the “Dough” program, time 1 hour 04 min. When the dough forms a ball, add the cranberries. After the program finishes, let it sit in the bucket for another 30 minutes. For manual mixing, combine milk, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp flour and yeast, let stand for 20 minutes. Then add the remaining ingredients. Add the cranberries at the very end of the mixing. Let it rest for 1 hour in a warm place, then knead and let it rest another 30 minutes.

Transfer the dough to the pan and place it in a warm spot, covering with a towel. The dough should rise to the edges of the pan. This will take 20 to 35 minutes. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

Bake the risen dough in a hot oven for 30 minutes; if the molds are small, it will take less time. The kulich rises significantly during baking.
