Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups Fresh or Frozen Raspberries
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar (Coconut sugar can be used for a different flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch (No substitutes needed)
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 4 cups All-Purpose Flour (Can use gluten-free blends with xanthan gum)
  • 1 cup Dairy-Free Milk (Warm milk yields the best results)
  • 1/2 cup Vegan Butter (Can use regular butter if not vegan)
  • 2 teaspoons Instant Dry Yeast (Ensure it’s fresh for best rise)
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg (Pumpkin spice blend is an alternative)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (Omit if using salted butter)
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Pistachios (Can swap for almonds or pecans)
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar (Powdered sugar can be used for a refined finish)
  • 2 tablespoons Water (Adjust amount for preferred consistency)

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine raspberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and water. Bring to a boil, mashing the raspberries gently as it cooks. Reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 5–7 minutes. Let cool.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, warm dairy-free milk, melted vegan butter, sugar, instant yeast, cinnamon, and salt until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 5–10 minutes until smooth.
  3. Place kneaded dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a towel, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  4. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and roll into a rectangle. Spread cooled jam over the dough, then roll into a log and twist the halves together to form a wreath on a baking sheet.
  5. Cover the wreath with plastic wrap and let it rise for another 1 hour.
  6. Preheat oven to 340°F (170°C). Bake the wreath for 20–30 minutes until golden-brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
  7. Mix granulated sugar with water to create a glaze. Brush over warm wreath and sprinkle with pistachios.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
