Pinca

Pinca is a cake without which Easter is not Easter! I make it with the peel of homemade lemons and oranges from Kvarner, which my dear parents always send me. Its scent and taste are adored by everyone I give it to for Easter. One of my husband’s favorite cakes! :on))

Preparation steps

  • From all the ingredients knead the dough, it must be firm. My husband always helps me towards the end, because it's really hard to knead. Put it in a fairly large (dough rises strongly), floured plastic bowl and cover with a cloth or if the bowl has a lid cover. Leave the dough to rise overnight. The next day, knead the dough again and let it rise for another 3-4 hours. After that, knead the dough again, divide it into several parts, depending on how big you want them to be). Let them rise a little more. Make on them, preferably with scissors, three cuts from the middle outwards and put them in the oven at approximately 180 degrees between 30-45 minutes. When they are almost done, take them out, coat them with beaten egg or just egg white and sprinkle with crushed sugar cubes.

Serving

Be sure to place the baking paper on the baking tray.
