20 Babka Recipes

Published by Amy Becker on February 2, 2016
20 Babka Recipes

Who doesn’t love the sweet Jewish bread cake amazingness we call babka? Have you ever made your own? Here are 20 Babka Recipes to get you started. Yes!20 Babka Recipes

Y’all. I love babka. (Bab-wha??) What is this magical treat? I’m glad you asked! It’s a yeasted bread (don’t be scared!) stuffed with chocolate, cinnamon, or pretty much anything you can imagine. And it’s just delicious. Babka came about as a way to use leftover challah dough, and repurpose it into a dessert. Sneaky! Sometimes topped with a streusel, chocolate, or magic.  (Cheating tip: use crescent dough instead of homemade to speed up the process).

Shalom! I’m Amy Kritzer Becker and welcome to What Jew Wanna Eat! Your source for home cooked (sometimes) kosher goodness. I have always enjoyed cooking and baking, but needed a new goal, a challenge, to get back to my culinary roots. So, I called up Bubbe Eleanor and pleaded for her to send me her best recipes. Stat!
