About Kitka bread

Kitka bread is a traditional braided loaf originating from Eastern European Jewish cuisine, often enjoyed during special occasions and holiday celebrations like Shabbat. This mildly sweet bread is made from simple ingredients including flour, sugar, eggs, yeast, water, and salt, with oil or butter added for richness and moisture. Its beautiful braided design gives it an appealing appearance, making it a centerpiece on festive tables. While Kitka is soft, fluffy, and delicious, the bread is relatively high in carbohydrates and may contain added sugars, depending on the recipe. Eggs and oils contribute protein and healthy fats, but portions should be mindful to balance its calorie density. Some recipes include toppings like sesame or poppy seeds for added texture and potential nutritional benefits, like fiber. Kitka bread is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
