cinnamon babka
Spiced swirl bread
Cinnamon babka is a sweet yeast bread with swirls of cinnamon-sugar filling running through it, typically baked in a loaf pan.
The dough is rolled with butter and cinnamon, then twisted or braided to create distinctive ribbons of filling throughout.
A staple of Eastern European Jewish baking, it's often compared to its chocolate counterpart: I'll take the cinnamon babka over chocolate any day.
