Orthodox Christmas Bread (Brioche Meets Croissant)

Описание: For everyone celebrating Orthodox Christmas on January 7th, here's my recipe for a Božićna Česnica - Serbian Orthodox Christmas bread! It's the most buttery, fluffy soft bread that's more like a cross between a croissant and brioche bun! 🍞

Because this is a very traditional, sacred bread, I'm sure everyone has a treasured recipe passed down through the generations, but if you're like me and didn't have a recipe passed down to you, then this recipe will make the mamas and the babas (grandmothers) in your life very pleased with you!

And if you don't celebrate Orthodox Christmas then this is a beautiful bread to bake into a loaf for any occasion! The dough is enriched with eggs, butter and sour cream, and you end up with delicate shreds of bread that melt in your mouth.
