Pain aux raisins (French pronunciation: [pɛ̃ o ʁɛzɛ̃](listen)), also called escargot (pronounced [ɛskaʁɡo](listen)) or pain russe, is a spiral pastry often eaten for breakfast in France. Its names translate as "raisin bread", "snail" and "Russian bread" respectively. It is a member of the pâtisserieviennoise family of baked foods.
In France, it is typically a variant of the croissant or pain au chocolat, made with a leavened butter pastry with raisins added and shaped in a spiral with a crème pâtissière filling.

It is often consumed for breakfast as part of a continental breakfast.
