What is Baba Karničnik?
Baba Karničnik is a traditional Eastern European sweet bread, usually made with eggs, milk, butter and sugar. It has a tender, slightly rich crumb and a noticeably sweet flavour, and is commonly enjoyed sliced rather than served as a savoury loaf. In its regional context, it suits breakfast or a tea-time table; elsewhere, it pairs just as naturally with coffee or tea as a simple afternoon treat.
It is mainly a source of carbohydrates, with some fat and protein from the enriched dough, and relatively little fibre. For a lighter serving, cut a thinner slice and have it with fresh fruit.
