Komisbrot Hungarian

Ah, Komisbrot – that’s a very nostalgic Hungarian treat! 🇭🇺

Despite the German-sounding name, it’s a Hungarian childhood favorite, often called “naughty bread” or “mischief bread.” It was a clever way for grandmas and moms to use up leftover bread. Instead of throwing stale bread away, they transformed it into a sweet, comforting snack.
