Fancy Breakfast Breads

Breakfast Chocolate Babka Slices

This class is being offered virtually. 

Take your breakfast or brunch to delicious heights with this sweet selection of Scandanavian and Eastern European fancy breakfast breads, like comfort food breads, you could say. Each one is soft and sweet, like a hug from your grandma (or bubbe, or mummo). In this fun, hands-on class, we’ll make Kardemummabular, a sweet cardamom roll from Sweden and Finland (also known as Pulla or Nisu); Povitica, a cinnamon walnut roll from Croatia; and Babka, a Jewish chocolate swirl bread of Eastern European origin. You'll get plenty of hands-on practice in class with mixing, kneading, rolling, twisting, shaping, and proofing yeasted doughs with sweet fillings. With these recipes in hand, you can surely host a world-class brunch!

You'll leave BAKE! with our recipes, the knowledge to recreate them at home, and all the fancy breakfast breads you made in class.

What our guests have to say about this class:

I have never turned on my oven since moving to Ann Arbor 15 months ago—now I will. —Randy T.

The breads were delicious! I loved the cardamom rolls, they are fantastic. If I ran a B&B I would bake them every day. —Denise A.

I came because I wanted to learn the babka recipe, but I loved the other breads almost more! I can't wait to make them at home this holiday season. —Ani K.
