Poppy Seed Roll
The Poppy Seed Roll is a traditional pastry popular in various cultures, especially in Eastern Europe. It consists of a sweet yeast dough that is rolled out and spread with a filling made primarily from ground poppy seeds, sugar, and sometimes nuts or dried fruits. After being rolled up, the dough is baked until golden brown, resulting in a soft, fluffy texture.
This delightful treat is often enjoyed during holidays and special occasions, such as Christmas or Easter. It can be served as a dessert or a sweet breakfast item, and is typically sliced to reveal its beautiful spiral pattern filled with the rich poppy seed mixture.
