VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: This recipe uses 1/2 a recipe of Recipe #307801, which is what I am unable to list in the ingredient list. I hope this is not too confusing, but it was the only way Zaar would let me do it. From "Festive Breads from your Food Processor", Good Food Magazine, December 1986.

This recipe is a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler potica bread recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of walnut, but I still enjoyed this bread. The dough was very soft and fluffy.
