60 minutes

A simple kulich made from a ready mix is a wonderful way to create an aromatic treat without extra hassle. Kulich, traditionally a symbol of Easter in Russian cuisine, surprises with its tenderness and sweetness. This version is especially convenient: using a ready mix simplifies the process, while adding cranberries and raisins gives a slight tartness and rich flavor. Kefir makes the texture moist and airy, vanilla adds a subtle aroma, and butter provides softness. Baked to a golden crust, it is perfect for family tea gatherings, festive breakfasts, and cozy evenings. Each piece of this kulich delights with a balance of sweetness and fruity notes, creating an atmosphere of warmth and comfort.
