Bolo Lêvedo | Traditional Bread Roll From São Miguel Island, Portugal | TasteAtlas

Bolo lêvedo

Bolo lêvedo is a traditional bread originating from the Azores. These sweet muffins are made with a combination of water, flour, sugar, eggs, butter, salt, milk, and yeast. The dough is shaped into small balls that are dusted with flour, then cooked over low heat.


As soon as one side turns golden brown, bolo lêvedo is turned over and cooked on the other side. They're best served hot, then slathered with butter or fruit jams. It's recommended to pair them with a cup of coffee on the side.
