Sugar-free Christmas Stollen

Why it's Low GI
A sourdough take on German stollen, packed with dried fruit and dusted in coconut instead of icing sugar. Fermentation and wholegrain flour lower the GI; stevia replaces the sugar.
Method
Tap a step when it's done.
- The evening before: mix the starter with the flour, add the milk to a thick batter, cover and leave somewhere warm overnight. Soak the dried fruit in the fridge overnight.
- In the morning, check the dough has doubled and looks airy. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Chop the soaked fruit if you like, then fold the drained fruit, blueberries and butter gently into the dough.
- Transfer to a tin (not quite full) and bake about 40 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean.
- Cool completely before turning out.
- Mix the coconut shreds with the stevia (blend finer if you prefer) and dust over the stollen.
