Succumbing to the Rye

After an image on a rye malt bag caught my eye, I had to satisfy my curiosity and  bake a batch of rye buns, because Finnish rye bread is my favourite.  To say they were delicious is a huge understatement!  I now make them almost every week and always have some on hand in the freezer so I may consume one every day.  Marmalade goes well to make an extra special treat.  Is this an addiction?  I'm not sure, but since the buns have such a high nutritional value, I won't worry about it.  

The recipe for Mallasleipäset or Rye Malt Buns can be found on the package back of Tuoppi Kaljamallas, which I purchased from FinnGoods.com.  It's not a difficult yeast dough and the whole process can be completed in about 2 hours.
