Kanelbullar — Swedish Cinnamon Buns
Sweden's most beloved bake and the heart of fika (the coffee break): soft, springy cardamom-scented buns rolled around a buttery cinnamon-sugar filling, twisted or coiled, brushed with egg and topped with crunchy pearl sugar. Kanelbullar are so cherished they have their own national day (October 4th). Lightly sweet, aromatic with cardamom and not too rich, they're the perfect partner to a strong coffee — and the smell of them baking is pure Swedish comfort.
