Easter cake with hazelnuts - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use almonds, walnuts, or pecans as a substitute for hazelnuts. Just ensure they are chopped to a similar size for even distribution in the dough.
Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months.
The recipe is already vegetarian as it doesn’t contain meat. For a vegan version, substitute eggs with flax eggs, butter with plant-based butter, and milk with almond or oat milk.
Yes, replace the regular flour with a gluten-free flour blend. Ensure the blend contains xanthan gum or add 1 tsp to mimic the texture of wheat flour.
Serve the cake slightly warmed or at room temperature. Pair it with tea, coffee, or a dollop of whipped cream for added richness.
Yes, wrap the cooled cake tightly in plastic wrap and then foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
Ensure your yeast is fresh and let the dough rise properly in a warm, draft-free environment. Over-kneading or using cold ingredients can also lead to denseness.
Yes, you can reduce the sugar by up to 25% without significantly affecting the texture. For a sugar-free version, use a sugar substitute like erythritol.
You can use a simple syrup glaze, melted chocolate, or a dusting of powdered sugar as alternatives to the protein glaze.
Halve all ingredients for a smaller batch. Keep the yeast amount proportional (about 1.5 tsp for half the recipe) and adjust baking time slightly (25-30 minutes).
