Step:
Mix sugar and softened butter together. Add whisked eggs, oil, lemon and orange rind, orange blossom and one cup of milk.
The second cup of milk can be warmed slightly and mixed with the yeast. Add to the rest of ingredients.
Add flour to mixture and when mixed well knead on a worktop for a few minutes until firm and elastic.
Leave to rest covered with a cloth for 3-4 hours near a warm area like radiator. dough needs to raise to more than double its volume
Knead again on the table and give the shape of a huge doughnut. Should be able to get 3 units.
Place in a lined or oiled oven tray where they need to rest a couple of hours to raise again
Once raised brush them with egg and decorate with the pieces of candied fruits
Bake on a medium oven. I chose 160 C for about 20-30 minutes or until golden
Sprinkle with sugar as you get them out of the oven
