🇵🇱 Poland recipe
Makowiec
A spectacular Polish poppy seed roll that graces every holiday table at Christmas and Easter. A tender, enriched yeast dough is rolled out thin and spread with a thick, luscious filling of ground poppy seeds cooked with honey, butter, raisins, walnuts, and candied orange peel. Rolled into a tight spiral, baked to a golden sheen, and often finished with a white icing drizzle.
