Today is …NATIONAL STICKY BUN DAY…National Sticky Bun Day is a holiday that’s celebrated on February 21st and celebrates a sweet, tasty pastry that many of have enjoyed at some point in time. Also known as sweet rolls in English and schnecken in German, this is a pastry that’s been enjoyed by people for hundreds of years. So why not bake up a plate of warm, gooey sticky buns and enjoy this holiday with friends and family? After all, the cold month of February is perfect for having some warm rolls. These warm pastries have been made since the Middle Ages, where they were often made with honey and cinnamon. These sweet rolled made out of leavened dough, were then brought to the United States during the 18th century by the Pennsylvania Dutch—immigrants from Germany. The Pennsylvania Dutch referred to these sticky rolls as Schnecken—which is German for “snail.” It was given this name because of the spiral shape of the pastry that resembles a snail’s shell. Although many people would look at sticky buns and think of something that they probably shouldn’t eat because it would drive up their blood sugar, we look at them as a piece of history. As such, we were able to find some fascinating facts about these sweet pastries—facts that we think everyone will find irresistible. The first bread to feature honey and nuts were made by the Ancient Egyptians. Schnecken is still a specialty that’s served in Philadelphia. Sticky Buns should always be made from a dough that contains yeast so that it will rise. In the United Kingdom, sticky rolls are made with raisins. These buns are known as Chelsea Buns. Sticky buns have been enjoyed since the Middle Ages. Cinnamon buns are considered to be a different pastry than sticky buns. Cinnamon buns tend to be baked in a pan, drizzled with a glaze, and don’t normally contain nuts. Both cinnamon buns and sticky buns use the same type of dough, however. Schnecken is popular in not only Germany and Austria, but other parts of Northern Europe as well.Polar Plunge Be Bold and Get COLD!
