Fallue is a traditional old-fashioned brioche originating from Normandy. The brioche is easily recognizable for its oval shape and thorny top. The simple dough is made with eggs, butter, flour, sugar, salt, yeast, and crème fraîche.

The dough should rise two times before it's shaped into an oval log, brushed with eggs, cut with scissors to create a ''hat'', and it's then baked in the oven until golden. Fallue is traditionally served with a creamy rice pudding known as teurgoule, but it can also be served for breakfast with fruit jam, honey, or butter.
