About the dish

Sunnmørsbrød is a traditional bread originating from the district of Sunnmøre in the county of Møre og Romsdal. This typical hearty Norwegian bread is usually made with a combination of sugar, oil, maple syrup, salt, rye flour, whole wheat flour, oats, all-purpose flour, water, and yeast. The dough is rolled out into loaves, left to rise, then brushed with butter and baked until the bread is crispy on the outside and soft and light on the inside. The top should have a dark brown color. The bread is typically eaten with butter or served with marinated Edam cheese known as marinert Edamerost.
