About Gibanica

Gibanica is a traditional Serbian dish, celebrated across the Balkans for its rich, savory flavor. This layered pastry combines sheets of phyllo dough with a filling made primarily of cheese, eggs, and sour cream, often enriched with butter for a decadent texture. Typically prepared with white brined cheese, such as feta or cottage cheese, its creamy mixture is baked until golden and crisp. Originating in Serbian cuisine, Gibanica is a staple at festive gatherings and holidays, but also enjoyed as a comforting everyday meal. While high in protein due to the eggs and cheese, Gibanica is also high in saturated fats and calories, making it a dish best savored in moderation. It provides energy and essential nutrients but lacks fiber and can be considered indulgent. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or lighter side dishes can help balance its nutritional profile.
