Vánočka (Czech: [ˈvaːnot͡ʃka]) is a plaited bread, baked in the Czech Republic and Slovakia (called vianočka in Slovak) traditionally around the Christmas holiday. A Christmas bread made from white flour, either in the form of a wedge or a plait, was first mentioned around 1400 by the Benedictine monk Jan of Holešov in his work Treatise on Christmas Eve.
