Wreath with poppy seeds in Pain D'epi baguette style. Bread to be torn off - yeast wreath for the Easter table

Pain d'epi is a French baguette shaped like an ear of wheat. This time, instead of baguettes, I formed two large baguettes and cut them with scissors just before baking. I put the cut corners once to the left, once to the right and baked. Here are two yeast wreaths perfect for the Easter table.

We can put a bowl with eggs, horseradish, beetroot or colorful Easter eggs into the baked wreaths. A yeast wreath on the Easter table is not only a decoration, it is also delicious bread to tear off, piece by piece...
