About the dish

Pain aux raisins or escargot (lit. snail) is a French spiral-shaped pastry made with a combination of leavened buttery dough or sweetened bread dough, raisins, and crème pâtissière. Once filled, this sweet treat is baked until its edges become slightly golden. Pain aux raisins is traditionally served in the morning for breakfast, although it is also sometimes enjoyed throughout the day with café latte or black coffee.
