Ingredients

• 4 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Milk
• 1/2 cup Butter
• 1/2 cup Sugar
• 2 tsp Active dry yeast
• 3 tbsp Cinnamon
• 1 tsp Cardamom
• 1/4 cup Pearl sugar

Steps

1. Knead the enriched dough with cardamom until silky; rise 1 hour until doubled.
2. Roll into a rectangle, spread with soft butter, and shower with the cinnamon-sugar.
3. Roll up, slice, and — the Swedish way — tuck each slice's tail underneath so the swirl sits proud.
4. Proof 30 minutes, brush with beaten egg, and sprinkle with pearl sugar.
5. Bake at 425°F for 10–12 minutes until golden; fika demands them warm.
