Sfințișori
Sfintisori are tender figure-eight sweet breads glazed with honey and finished with walnuts, a festive Romanian and Moldovan treat for early spring. The dough is softly enriched and citrus-scented, then baked until golden so the syrup makes each twist glossy and fragrant.

Bloom yeast in warm milk with a spoonful of sugar until foamy.
Mix flour, remaining sugar, salt, eggs, butter, and lemon zest with the yeast mixture to form a soft dough.
