Easter bread with raisins
Description
The baking is simple and quick. If you prepare the Easter bread according to my instructions, you'll end up with a lot of dough. You can place it in one large mold or divide it among several smaller ones. This taste is familiar from childhood and will surely delight your children too. Take a look and remember: serve it cooled down or slightly warm.

Add the remaining flour. Knead the dough. It may seem a bit runny, but don't be alarmed. This is correct, it's supposed to be this way. Let the dough rise for two hours in a warm place.
