This is a live, interactive, hands-on cooking class held online via Zoom. See our event policies at the bottom of this webpage.

Cinnamon buns are probably the most iconic sweet baked goods in Sweden. Almost any Swede knows how to bake them and does so on a regular basis to make sure they never run out. Johanna, who is a Swede living in Brooklyn, grew up having these buns every day after school. She thinks they are the best treat for fika, the Swedish coffee break, and would love to teach you how to make them with different flavors and shapes.
Traditionally these buns are made with a cardamom flavored sweet dough, filled with different types of buttery fillings and shaped into classic rolls, knots or festive braided lengths. In this class you will learn how to shape the dough in three different shapes with three delicious fillings.

As we settle in for holidays and time away from work and school, learn to make these buns for quality time at home or with loved ones!
