Almond paste preparation:

- Drain the apricots and drain.
- Grind in the food processor: the almond flour, apricots and honey until it becomes a ball.
- Lay the food mixture on a piece of fresh foil and make a roll of it with your hands (about as long as your cake tin) roll it tightly in foil and put it in the fridge (about 15 to 30 minutes) to stiffen up.
Preparation “kerststol”:
- Preheat the oven to 175 degrees.
- Line a cake tin with baking paper.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat.
- Mix the almond flour, cinnamon, honey and sea salt in the food processor.
- Add the eggs, vanilla and butter and run the machine until the mixture is homogenous. Is the mixture too dry? Then add a dash of almond/coconut milk.
- Add the dried fruits to the mixture and scoop well. Sprinkle the sodium bicarbonate over the mixture and sprinkle with lemon juice. Spoon the mixture through.
- Fill the baking tin with half of the mixture, place the almond paste roll on top and cover with the other half of the mixture.
- Finally, divide the almond shavings on top.
- Put in the oven for 50-60 minutes.
