In Russian cuisine, sweet yeast bread has always been a symbol of the home hearth, and this recipe is no exception. The tender dough, soaked in milky softness, hides juicy raisins inside that add a light fruity sweetness. Cinnamon and sugar create an appetizing caramel crust and a rich spicy aroma that fills the home with coziness. This bread is perfect for morning tea or coffee, wonderfully complements festive tables, and brings a sense of care and tradition. It can be served warm or chilled, with butter or honey — in any variation it will delight and warm.
