6 International Christmas Dessert Recipes

Here are a few international Christmas dessert recipes for inspiration that we gleaned from Instagram. Enjoy!

1. Yule Log Cake

This cake is so cute! We love @zenbelly’s take on the Yule Log Cake. We love her feed as well!

2. Makowiec

Have you ever tried this traditional Polish poppy seed pastry? It’s commonly eaten around Christmas and Easter time.

3. Christstollen

Instead of a traditional fruitcake, why not have a go at baking a stollen–a cake-like fruit bread that’s generally covered in powdered sugar or icing?

 

Unsere Weihnachtsbäckerei hat ein glutenfreies Christstollen-Rezept gezaubert ! 💫😍 Je nach Geschmack und Vorliebe kann man das Rezept variieren – mit Trockenfrüchten, Gewürzen,… der Kreativität sind wenig Grenzen gesetzt. 😃💥 #Christstollen #TraditionsgebäckMalAnders #paleofriendly #glutenfrei
