Description

Homemade baking for tea. There are many recipes for kulich. Personally, I consider this one of the most successful for myself! I have been making kulich according to it for many years, and I really hope the result will please you as well. The bake turns out very tender, airy, fluffy and, of course, tasty! With the listed amount of ingredients I get two medium kulich. If you expect a large group of friends or plan to give kulich to loved ones, feel free to increase the ingredients two or three times. The bake is insanely delicious! You won’t regret it. It can be served with tea or coffee.
