Hefekranz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Hefezopf)
Hefekranz or Hefezopf (literally "Yeast Wreath" and "Yeast Braid") are breads from Switzerland, southern Germany, Austria and South Tyrol.
The dough is made from sugar, flour, butter, eggs and yeast (sometimes with raisins or almonds).
Typically both Hefezopf and Hefekranz consist of three braided dough-pieces. While the Hefezopf ("Zopf" meaning braid) is a loaf of only consisting of a braid, the Hefekranz' braid is bent into a wreath ("Kranz" meaning wreath).
