Soft, buttery, cardamom-spiced cinnamon buns made the traditional Swedish way.
There are few things that capture the heart of Sweden quite like freshly baked Kanelbullar, or Swedish Cinnamon Buns. At Swedish Cravings, we're passionate about sharing authentic Swedish recipes that have been passed down through generations, bringing the warmth of Swedish baking into homes around the world.
Unlike many American cinnamon rolls, traditional Swedish cinnamon buns are lighter in sweetness, delicately flavored with aromatic cardamom, generously layered with butter, cinnamon, and sugar, and finished with crunchy pearl sugar instead of frosting.
Whether you're celebrating Fika, Sweden's beloved coffee break tradition, or simply looking to enjoy homemade Swedish baking, this authentic recipe will bring the taste of Sweden straight into your kitchen.
