Unlike other canestrelli varieties, the ones traditionally prepared in Brugnato are soft, dark brown in color, and very large – they can reach up to 20 cm in diameter. This simple sweet bread is made with leavened dough that is flavored with honey and anise seeds, which give it a characteristic, delicately sweet, aromatic kick. Canestrelli di Brugnato are perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack, especially if paired with a cup of coffee or tea.
