Making Dutch Suikerbrood (Sugar Bread) | Bread Around the World | Ep 1

In the first episode of our series "Bread Around The World", we are making an incredible Dutch sweet bread called Suikerbrood, which translates directly to "Sugar Bread". It is typically eaten in Belgium and the Netherlands (especially in the Friesland province), and is traditionally given to parents as a gift after a baby's birth. This delicious bread is filled with cinnamon, ginger, and little crunchy nibs of Belgian Pearl Sugar, which are highly compacted forms of sugar that don't easily melt in your dough and can caramelize, making for an incredibly unique texture. Serve warm with some coffee or espresso and some of the cinnamon-ginger drizzle that we made in the video for a wonderful dessert or even use it to make French Toast!
