Keep FROZEN until ready to bake. Plan ahead! Your Bavarian Crème Butter Braid® Pastry requires time to thaw and rise before baking. Remove your frozen pastry from the package and set it out the night before so that it’s ready to be baked in the morning for a warm breakfast treat.

  1. Remove frozen pastry from package and place on lightly greased 9” x 13” metal pan or 11” x 17” cookie sheet with edges. Set icing packet and directions aside.
  2. Loosely cover frozen pastry with plastic wrap. Allow to thaw and rise at room temperature for 8-12 hours, or until doubled in size (ideal room temperature is 72°F). Tip – Lightly spray plastic wrap with cooking spray and place sprayed side down to prevent dough from sticking.
  3. Preheat oven to 325°F. Remove plastic and bake thawed pastry for 22-27 minutes until golden brown. Ovens vary, so adjust time and temperature accordingly.
  4. Enjoy the way your kitchen smells while you allow the pastry to cool. Slice with electric, bread, or serrated knife.
  5. Drizzle contents of icing package over top of pastry. Enjoy with people you love!

For maximum shelf life, keep frozen until ready to use.

Once baked, store your Bavarian Crème Butter Braid® Pastry at room temperature in covered dish for 1-2 days.
