A traditional pastry from Brittany, kouign amann means ‘butter cake’ in the Breton language. This is a five ingredient recipe and is so therapeutic to put together. You can also add slices of apple, extra caramel or even a sprinkle of cinnamon to flavour yours, if you like. Don’t be intimidated by the folds and layers – it doesn’t have to be perfect.
