Korvapuusti
Korvapuusti literally means slapped ear. Eaten in Finnish coffee houses with the beloved tradition of coffee and pastry.
Finnish cinnamon buns — large, cardamom-spiced rolls twisted into an ear shape, generously filled with cinnamon and butter, topped with pearl sugar.
Ingredients
Method
Knead flour, yeast, milk, butter, sugar and cardamom to a smooth dough. Prove 1 hour.
Roll into a rectangle. Spread with softened butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll up tightly.
Cut into slices. Twist each slice to form an ear shape.
Prove 30 minutes. Brush with egg. Top with pearl sugar. Bake at 200°C for 12-15 minutes.
Cardamom is the defining Finnish touch — Finnish korvapuusti are significantly more cardamom-forward than Swedish buns.
