Finnish Easter Bread

"Finnish Easter Bread – Paasiaisleipa, from the Karelian region, is a delicious sweet, egg rich bread perfect to celebrate the Easter Holiday. Many countries have a version of traditional Easter breads. These are often very rich breads – using much butter and eggs for super soft textured breads. This Finnish version is no different. This recipe is Karelian in origin. Karelia has been hard fought land over centuries between Sweden, Russia and Finland. It is currently shared with it partially under Russian rule and the other part belongs to Finland. Two forms of the Karelian language exists, Russian Karelian and Finnish Karelian."
