Danish Kringle

"This is a likely favorite for pastry lovers. My mom made this now and then as she loves pastries. It isn't difficult to make. Plan ahead because it requires chilling the pastry overnight. You can choose any flavor of fruit preserves that you like. It works out great to serve them for breakfast."

  • Cut dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each part on a floured pastry cloth into a 6x12 inch rectangle.
  • Put filling in a 2x12 line down the center of the rectangle. Fold outside thirds of the dough over the filling like you are folding a brochure.
  • Seal ends and sprinkle with sugar.
  • Bake on a dark cookie sheet at 375 for 30 minutes or until golden brown. You can bake at a higher temperature for a shorter time if you prefer.

  1. Being Danish, I can verify that this is NOT Danish Kringle. The whole idea of kringle is that you put a pound of butter on top of your pastry, fold pastry over, cool , roll and repeat. That gives you the light airy flaky pastry that's necessary for this unique dessert.

My all time favorite thing to do is cook and bake. My love for cooking began my first year at college. It has grown into an obsession with recipes. Fortunately, my husband is supportive :) I love the Taste of Home magazines. Most of the recipes I try from their publications are outstanding. I also enjoy running long distances and exercising.
