Stollen is over browned
Asked on 13 Dec 2020 by Mazz
Hi Lindsey, I’ve made the Christmas stollen and it has over browned in 35 minutes. I didn’t use the fan oven. Shall I reduce the temperature, cover it with foil half way through cooking or cook it for less time?

Hello,
It can be a little on the dark side.
If it’s very dark it could be that your oven is running a little high – in which case I would reduce the temperature a little. If you haven’t got one an oven thermometer is useful to make sure.
Also, as the stollen is quite large I position the oven shelf below the centre of the oven so the stollen sits nicely in the centre.
Kind regards
Lindsey
