Our Finnish Doughnuts with cardamom (Munkki in Finnish) are amazing, for me they are hands-down the best sugar doughnuts I’ve tasted! Seriously, you have to try them! Although be warned, it takes a lot of self-discipline not to devour them all in one sitting… These doughnuts are typically served as a part of Finnish May Day (Vappu) celebrations, with a glass of sima of course!

Craving for pizza? Try Flammekueche, a Franco-German version of pizza! Flammekueche is best described as a cross between pizza bianca (white pizza), flatbread and tart: it has a super thin base that’s traditionally covered with crème fraîche, bacon and sliced onions. It’s mouth-wateringly good and the best thing is it’s much quicker to make than a regular pizza as the dough is unleavened. No yeast means no proofing, and no proofing means the oh-so delicious flammekueche will be in your belly in no time!

Freshly baked bread, how good is that!? I know bread making is notoriously difficult, but I don’t quite understand why. Making sourdough is a different story, but bread rolls in particular are rather easy to make, I promise! And you don’t need any fancy equipment for this recipe, just a little bit of kneading with your hands to bring the dough together. So without further ado, let me introduce you to one of my favourite types of bread: Carrot Bread Rolls (Porkkanasämpylät in Finnish). Carrot works so nicely in a bread, the flavour it adds is very subtle but it gives the bread a bit of sweetness – and of course some vitamins, which is a bonus! Also, these bread rolls freeze extremely well 🙂
