My mother's side of the family is from Croatia. This bread is a family favorite that has been made for many generations. We mostly make it for the major holidays and big family get-togethers. It is literally gone within 15 minutes of pulling it out for everyone to eat.

Yum! This savory bread is delicious. We loved the onions cooked with the bacon. It gave a sweet flavor to the onion and a richness to the prisnats. They're moist and creamy, like a hearty quiche. This Croation dish would be great for brunch or a dinner appetizer. The Test Kitchen

How to Make Prisnats

Step-by-Step

Cook onions and bacon until onions are transparent.
Drain and set aside until cool.
Beat eggs until foamy. Add yeast mixture, salt, cottage cheese and bacon-onion mixture.
Fold together, do not mix.
Slowly add 1 cup of flour at a time.
It should look thick like cake batter.
Grease and flour 2 bread pans or 1 9x13 cake pan.
Pour batter into the pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
If it starts to smell really yummy check it. If the top is a nice golden color stick a toothpick in it. If nothing runny comes out it's finished. All ovens are different so you'll have to start watching it as the aroma fills your house.
