Kipferl, kifli, kiflice, kifle or cornuri is a traditional yeast bread roll that is rolled and formed into a crescent before baking.

It is a common type of bread roll throughout much of central Europe and nearby countries, known by several names. It is thought to be the inspiration for the French croissant, which has a very similar shape but is made with a different type of dough.
