Kouign Amann
Kouign-amann, pronounced "queen a-mahn," is a traditional Breton pastry hailing from the region of Brittany in France. Its name derives from the Breton words for 'cake' (kouign) and 'butter' (amann), aptly reflecting its rich composition. This indulgent treat is crafted from a yeast-leavened dough, similar to that used for croissants, which is meticulously layered with generous amounts of butter and sugar. During baking, the butter creates steam, causing the dough to puff up and form delicate, flaky layers, while the sugar caramelizes, yielding a golden, crispy exterior. The result is a harmonious blend of textures: a tender, buttery interior encased in a sweet, caramelized shell.
