Hefe Zopf is a traditional Swiss bread characterized by its soft texture and signature braided appearance. Made with simple ingredients like white flour, milk, butter, eggs, yeast, sugar, and a pinch of salt, it has a slightly sweet flavor and a golden, glossy crust achieved through an egg wash before baking. Commonly enjoyed for breakfast or brunch, it pairs well with butter, jam, or honey. While Hefe Zopf provides energy from carbohydrates and some protein from eggs and milk, its primary ingredients—white flour and butter—mean it is relatively high in refined carbs and saturated fats, so it’s best consumed in moderation. This bread is a staple in Swiss cuisine and holds cultural significance, often served on weekends and during festive occasions. Its soft, airy texture and comforting flavor make it a favorite treat across Switzerland and beyond.
