🇬🇪 Georgia recipe
Lobiani
Lobiani is the bean-filled cousin of khachapuri, a golden baked flatbread bursting with a richly spiced kidney bean filling. It holds a special place in Georgian culture, traditionally prepared for Barbaroba, the feast day of Saint Barbara, in December. The yeast dough puffs up around the creamy bean interior, creating a satisfying contrast between the crisp exterior and the soft, savory filling within.
