About Kringel

Kringel is a traditional Scandinavian and Baltic pastry, renowned for its twisted, ring-like shape and rich flavors. Typically crafted from a soft, yeasted dough containing flour, sugar, milk, butter, and eggs, it's often enhanced with spices like cardamom or cinnamon. Commonly adorned with a sweet glaze or sprinkled with pearl sugar, Kringel is enjoyed as a celebratory treat during holidays and festive gatherings. While its carbohydrate-rich base provides energy, the higher sugar and fat content make it a more indulgent item than a daily staple. Homemade versions can be modified with whole-grain flours or reduced sugar for increased nutritional benefit. Originating from regions such as Estonia and Sweden, Kringel carries cultural significance and offers a delightful taste of Northern European baking traditions. Enjoyed in moderation, this pastry is a flavorful companion to tea or coffee on special occasions.
