JJ's Easy Raspberry Braid- Christmas Breakfast


Falalalalalalala! Another Family favorite! This beautiful and easy to make braid can be made by a youngster! Look's complicated....NOT! When my children were growing up, we had this every Christmas morning, for sure, but, many times throughout the year. I adapted the recipe from my long time German mentor, Eva Kenly. This one you can have ready for tomorrow morning!

I am linking this recipe to "Foodie Friends Friday"!

  1. I like how you used seedless jam. They always get stuck in your teeth. You don't want seeds in your teeth for the xmas photos. Merry Christmas!
