Swedish Tea Ring - Help at Home

Swedish Tea Ring In this video, I show you how to make a delicious Swedish Tea Ring. You’ve probably never had one before, but they are relatively easy to make and use the same dough that you make cinnamon rolls with. Some traditional recipes use cinnamon and also raisins to make this pastry, however, my family has never done this and I will not add them to this recipe. This is a delicious, tender coffee cake style recipe that is great for get-togethers, the holidays or all year long. It’s always a special occasion when they see you bring out a Tea Ring. The inside is filled with a layer of melted butter, brown sugar and optionally, chopped pecans. If you don’t like nuts, leave them out. This is a yeast bread and that is what helps it acquire the light, delicate and flavorful taste that it has. It is also topped with a white drizzle icing that includes butter and vanilla. Enjoy this treat and add it to your very own cookbook!
