Kringle
Kringle (, listen ) is a Northern European pastry, a variety of pretzel.

In Danish and Norwegian, the word is kringle, plural kringler; Estonian: kringel, plural kringlid; Latvian: kliņģeris, plural kliņģeri; Swedish: kringla, plural kringlor; Finnish: rinkeli; German: Kringel and Icelandic: kringla.
