Tasty Bulgarian Food - Banitsa

This is the best Easy Traditional Bulgarian Banitsa also known as Banitsa. Banitsa is a traditional Bulgarian Phyllo recipe that is a staple in the country. It’s flakey & buttery phyllo dough rolled with feta — or Bulgarian white cheese (like Feta) which is called Sirene. I will never forget waking up to the smell of fresh bread and homemade “Banitza”. It is simply the most delicious phyllo pastry dish, and the options for fillings are endless. My favorite filling was always with feta cheese , which my grandma and I would often make for dessert. She would roll handmade sheets of phyllo every single weekend for hours, and I watched and helped her for as long as I can remember. This dish is also known as Pita, or Burek in many European countries and households and everyone has a slightly different variation of it.
