Rum Baba

Method

For the baba

  • In a mixer’s bowl add the flour, the butter at room temperature, the orange zest, the yeast, the honey, salt, and beat with the whisk attachment at medium speed, for 3-4 minutes, until the mixture is fluffy.
  • Add the eggs one by one and beat at high speed for 4-5 minutes. The mixture will be quite runny. 
  • Butter and flour a 23 cm Bundt pan and transfer the mixture in. Cover with a dish towel and let it double in volume for about 1 hour.

  • Bake for 25-30 minutes. Set aside to cool well. 

For the syrup

  • Place a pot over medium heat and add the sugar, the water, the cinnamon, and the orange peels. Let it come to a boil until the sugar is completely dissolved. As soon as it does, remove from the heat. 
  • Cut the baba in half, horizontally, and drizzle the cut sides with rum. 
  • Let the baba cool and absorb the syrup on both sides for 1 hour. 
  • To assemble
  • Place the one half of the baba on a serving platter and cover with half of the whipped cream.
  • Cover with the other baba piece and spread the remaining whipped cream.
  • Decorate with the candied cherries and serve.
