Prepare the Filling
- Prepare the Dough Balls: Once the dough has risen, sprinkle a work surface with flour and divide the dough into 4 parts. Form each piece into a ball, cover with cling film, and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Roll Out the Dough: Roll out one ball of dough into a 26×33 cm rectangle. Spread softened butter over the dough, sprinkle with sugar, and add grated citrus peel, raisins, dried cranberries, and chopped walnuts.
- Roll into Logs: Roll the dough into a log and repeat with the remaining dough balls.
Assemble and Bake
- Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a baking dish with butter and place the rolled dough inside. Let it rise in a warm place for 30-40 minutes.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F).
- Bake the Kraffin: Bake the kraffin for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Finish and Serve
- Cool and Dust: Once the kraffin is ready, let it cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Tips and Variations
- Citrus Variations: Use a mix of tangerine, lemon, and orange peels for a more complex flavor.
- Nut Options: Substitute chopped almonds or pecans for the walnuts if you prefer.
- Fruit Additions: Add dried apricots or currants to the filling for additional flavor.
- Butter Substitute: Use margarine instead of butter if needed.
- Serving Suggestion: Serve the kraffin with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat.
