Tips:

  • Proof the dough properly: The key to light and fluffy kringler is properly proofing the dough. Make sure to let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will ensure that the kringler has a tender and airy texture.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the final product. Use high-quality butter, flour, and sugar to ensure that your kringler tastes its best.
  • Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make it tough. Be gentle when kneading the dough, and only work it until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help to prevent it from spreading too much in the oven. This will result in a more even and attractive bake.
  • Glaze the kringler while it is still warm: Glazing the kringler while it is still warm will help the glaze to set and give the kringler a beautiful shine.
