Swedish rye bread

I only bake bread once or twice a year, but I just saw this community pop up, and I wanted to share the loaf I made on Christmas eve. This is a Swedish rye bread. It is a bit sweet, oweing to the brown sugar and orange zest it contains. It is a recipe that goes back at least to my grandmother's recipe, in which it was entitled "Limpa". I love it, and have always had it at Christmas.

I just noticed the CBD joints and moonshine in the background. Ah well. Happy holidays!

CBD joints

Genuinely curious as I'm a pot user and this made me wonder - why not just.. joints? if I were looking for just cbd I'd consumer it other than smoking.

Feel free to dm response heh

Don't know if over explaining but "limpa" just means loaf. :)

Yes! I just learned that recently. I also baked some kardemummabullar on Christmas.

Looks like I had a pic of the recipe on my phone.

Looks like a sirapslimpa, syrup loaf, but with brown sugar instead of syrup.

Must resist urge to braid...must.

I love it, orange zest is definitely on the list of experiments I want to run. Bet it was amazing. Keep up the good work!
