Swedish saffron Christmas bread from The Great Scandinavian Baking Book by Beatrice Ojakangas

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • anya_sf on December 21, 2023

    The no-knead dough was easy to make in a stand mixer using the paddle attachment, and easy to shape after chilling overnight. The headnote mentions various bun shapes, but instructions are only provided for a large wreath or basic round buns. I shaped traditional Lucia cats per The Finnish Cookbook and got 16 buns, although mine came out rather fat. These buns were light and fluffy and were still fresh the day after baking, which is unusual for this bread. Will definitely repeat.
