Julvört – Christmas Worth Bread – is a must during Christmas time in Sweden I would say. Together with a few other staple foods this bread is something that is mandatory on a Swedish Christmas dinner table. But the big question always comes down to there should be raisins in it or not. It’s a bit of a watershed that can create massive discussions and drama around the table. I personally prefer it with raisins, since they make the bread extra juicy, tender and adds a nice sweetness to it. This version of Swedish Christmas Worth bread is baked with easy ingredients and the worth spice blend can be made with spices you probably have at home. This bread is gluten, egg, nut, oil/butter and sugar free. It can also be made dairy free if preferred.

A few tips:

  • If you can’t find worth bread spice mix at the store you can make your own one by mixing 1 tbsp ground bitter orange, 1 tsp ground cloves, 1 tbsp ground anis, 1 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp ground cardamom, 1 tsp ground cinnamon and 1 tbsp ground fennel. 
  • You can use Swedish Christmas must or a dark porter to bake this bread.
  • I used Swedish filmjölk to bake this bread. But you can also use a plain yogurt, but not a thick one, it should be a more runny one.
  • You can also use a dairy free/vegan yogurt if preferred.
  • Using raisins is optional.
  • Bake the bread in the lower part of the oven for 60-70 minutes.
  • Let the bread cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan, then gently remove it from the pan and let it cool completely before slicing it.
