Polish "babka wielkanocna"

Baba or babka means "old woman" or "grandmother" in Polish and gets its name from the dessert's resemblance to an old woman's full skirt or a top knot. This half-cake, half-bread, yeast-risen confection celebrates the return of the egg to the diet after Lent. Raisins, citron and almonds are traditional, but some prefer to leave them out entirely.
