Known as kouign amann (pronounced kween-yah-MAHN), this classic cake from Brittany is made with bread dough and butter and has a caramelized-sugar top. This easy version, prepared with store-bought bread dough or pizza dough, has been adapted from Home Baking.

wine recommendation

This buttery cake and its caramel-like topping are a great showcase for a tangy-sweet tawny port or Madeira. Opt for Blandy's Alvada 5-year-old Madeira or Taylor Fladgate's 10-year-old tawny port.
