Kerststol

Description

Kerststol is a special Dutch bread that is prepared and consumed during the Christmas festivities. It is typically stuffed with raisins and candied fruits, then sprinkled with powdered sugar on top. Traditionally, it contains a layer of creamy almond paste on the inside. During the festivities, the bread is sliced, buttered, and served for breakfast or brunch. If the same bread is prepared at Easter, it is then called paasstol .
