Allerheiligenstriezel () or simply Striezel or Strietzel (regional names include Allerseelenzopf, Seelenspitze, Seelenbrot, or Allerseelenbreze) is a braided yeast pastry. Its name means "All Saints' braid" in English and it consists of flour, eggs, yeast, shortening or butter, raisins, milk, salt, and decorating sugar or poppy seeds.

The word is derived from Middle High German strutzel, strützel, in turn from Old High German struzzil. Its further origin is unclear.
