Danish Easter Traditions, Explained
Happy Easter weekend! We love Easter because, for us, it really marks the beginning of spring. Flowers are starting to bloom, trees are turning a beautiful shade of green, and the sky is blue again! We aren’t religious, so that side of it does not play into the holiday for us, but of course, for many, it does.
Klatkager (Rice Porridge Pancakes)
Today’s recipe is a super easy and delicious way to use up rice porridge leftovers! We recently posted our recipe for Danish rice porridge, or risengrød, which we traditionally eat on the 23rd of December in our family.

Christmas is coming up soon, and we are super excited for some much-needed time with family! We would say that one of the best ways to spend time with family over the holidays is baking cookies together.
Lussekatter (Lucia Buns)
December 13th is Saint Lucy’s Day (Luciadag), a Christian holiday that Scandinavia celebrates. It is an imported Swedish holiday in Denmark, so most of our traditions stem from Sweden.

Christmas may be over, but that doesn’t mean we stop eating sweets! This awkward period between Christmas and New Year’s is the perfect time to kick back and enjoy life.
