Cinnamon and Poppyseed Rolls
Cinnamon and Poppyseed Rolls
I was craving home baked dessert and ever since the Classic German Baking book, I am eager to make some traditional poppy seed cakes. However, I still need to organise a good grinder for the poppy seeds. Until such time, and because I had discovered the below tin in a Polish supermarket, I wanted to try and make some form of poppy seed pastry.

Zimtbrezeln - Classic German Baking
Zimtbrezeln – Classic German Baking
Last summer we read My Berlin Kitchen by Luisa Weiss after our amazing trip to Berlin. The book featured a few recipes which we successfully tried out, such as Pflaumenmus (spiced plum jam) and Berliner Pfannkuchen (doughnuts filled with plum jam). The stories and recipes in her book reminded me of my own childhood in Berlin.
For my birthday, my girlfriend gave me Classic German Baking which…
