Baking Lovers,
It’s that time again: my next instalment into the 12 Days of Baking!
As I said in my first post about my Christmas blogging, I wanted to explore some different traditions from around the world where my colleagues are from. I have accumulated a few great recipes that are worth the effort, and taste amazing. Some are easier than others, but today’s recipe may take a little extra TLC…
Today we’re going for a traditional Hungarian sweet treat which one of our directors suggested to me. Being from Budapest (it’s actually pronounced Buda-pesht!), he told me that he remembers it from when he was young, always at Christmas and Easter. After I did my research, I found a great, easy recipe that makes a perfect Beigli.
The Beigli is (sort of) Budapest’s take on a yule log – hopefully Hungarians won’t curse me for that comparison! It’s light and perfect as an after-christmas-dinner bite.

For the Filling
Start by making the light dough…
To make the filling…
Construct the rolls…
This is one of the first traditions that I have written about that isn’t something I had tried before, and I was so pleasantly surprised – I don’t usually like nuts, but this bread is to die for. It really tasted like Christmas in a mouthful, and it made my family very happy. (Although I’m not sure if that was the Beigli or the constant stream of baked goodies…)
I hope that all of your Christmas prep and baking is going well! We would love to see your goodies, so share them on social media and tag Wenzel’s so we can see!
Merry-almost-Christmas!
Wenzel’s xoxo
