Van Straten Bakery Pains aux Raisins 8pc 285g

If you grew up in Holland, a bag of krentenbollen was mandatory for every school trip, long car ride, or quick weekend lunch.

These aren't the dense, heavy raisin breads you find in Canadian supermarkets. They are light, slightly sweet, chewy yeast buns generously packed with currants and raisins.

Slice one in half and spread it generously with real butter. Eat it cold for breakfast, or pack it in a lunchbox for a midday snack. Add a slice of young Gouda cheese if you want the true sweet-and-salty Dutch experience.
