Pozdrav iz prekmurja❤❤❤

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Hvala ❤️❤️❤️

[@ljubicajovanovic9833]

pre 20 godina jela sam prekmursku gibanicu u motelu brezice. vise ga nema otkako je napravljen autoput i nema one gibanice. ali cu napraviti prema vasem receptu. hvala i lepo pozdravleni.

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Tako sam sretna što ste pronašli moj recept. Nadam se da vam se sviđa koliko i nama. Moja mama je rođena Prekmurka pa je ovo njen obiteljski recept! Dober tak

[@whereami6751]

Instead of cottage cheese I recommend farmer cheese which has consistency of Slovenian skuta. Love the recipe.

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Yes I also make it with cottage cheese. That’s how I grew up eating it. But I really like it with ricotta too

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Absolutely gorgeous 10 layer gibanica; Mom never made this one; she did, however, make her own FILO dough and used these fillings as you show (poppy seeds, cottage cheese, apple, and walnuts) separately.

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

It’s def a labour of love and a work of art 💗 I’m half Prekmurka so it’s a dessert very dear to my heart too 💕

[@angelasedmak9140]

Love it more simple then making all your own pastry

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Yes I agree. It’s a labour of love BUT more easy to make than most would think. Especially using store bought phyllo dough. The most time consuming part is weighing and preparing the filling. I love make this dessert 💗

[@loretatheuma833]

Very interesting

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Thank you ❤️ If you give it a try let me know what you think?

[@szymmszy]

Could it be 250 degree instead of 350 degree in the oven? (that's my max. temp.) Should i hold it there longer like 1,5h?

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Temperature is 350 degree Fahrenheit or 175 degree Celsius

[@szymmszy]

@@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle 😅Thanks! I thought that for real Gibanica you would need an oven with a temperature of 350 celsius, Haha!

[@RKM-fs2km]

How do you store it? What is the shelf life if it's not refrigerated immediately?

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

I would def suggest storing it in the fridge especially on warm days!

[@jelkamilovac6479]

Može li na srpski prevod ili hrvatski

[@chrispincolic4632]

We just made this for Christmas, any idea if leftovers can be frozen?

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

To be honest, I have never frozen it. I’m not sure if this is possible. If you try it please let me know know how it freezes? I hope you loved the recipe as much as we do. Thank you

[@user-lx1pr1rg7g]

Can pastry dough be used instead of phyllo dough?

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

Traditionally it is made with phyllo dough! We have never made it any other way. If you try it please let us know how it worked out :)

[@user-lx1pr1rg7g]

@@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle Ok thank you Michelle. I will give the phyllo dough but I have not had much luck working with that dough.

[@SlovenianKitchenbyMichelle]

@user-lx1pr1rg7g when you unroll it make sure to cover it with a damp cloth so the sheets don’t break. Good luck. Let me know how it goes :)
