Germany takes its baked goods very seriously. They’ve turned the humble loaf into an art form – using many varieties of flour, seasonings, sweeteners, and flavorings. Most of the below are time-honored traditions, created by long-forgotten generations to make the most of cheap ingredients like wheat and other grains.
