poppy seed bread
Speckled breakfast bread
Poppy seed bread is a sweet or savory bread studded with tiny blue-black poppy seeds, which add a subtle nutty flavor and distinctive speckled appearance.
The seeds may be folded into the dough, swirled through as a filling, or sprinkled on top.
Eastern European versions often feature a dense poppy seed paste rolled into the loaf: Grandma's poppy seed bread was a holiday tradition.
