American speakers would refer to these as cinnamon rolls, but this is the authentic Danish recipe, and it is delicious. They are to die for and are typically served at Christmastime with coffee or tea.

Reviews
it is a good recipe
This recipe makes a beautiful looking loaf. The texture and flavour were bang on but I had a little trouble getting the dough to come together and had to add extra flour, I must have done something wrong. I made this exactly as written although I was puzzled by the 1/4 tsp of onion powder, it didn’t add anything to the loaf. Thanks Foresthome
