The Eleventh Government of the Republic of Croatia (Croatian: Jedanaesta Vlada Republike Hrvatske) was the Croatian Government cabinet led by Prime Minister Jadranka Kosor. It was announced on 6 July 2009 and its term ended on 23 December 2011. The cabinet came into existence after Prime Minister Ivo Sanader abruptly resigned on 1 July 2009, designating Kosor as his successor and making her the first woman to serve as prime minister since Croatia gained independence in 1991. It was succeeded by the Cabinet of Zoran Milanović following the centre-left Kukuriku coalition's success in the 2011 parliamentary elections.
The cabinet represented parties from the ruling coalition formed following the 2007 parliamentary elections:

Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ)
Croatian Social Liberal Party (HSLS)
Independent Democratic Serb Party (SDSS)
Croatian Peasant Party (HSS)

Bianca Matković was appointed Minister without portfolio.
New Ministry for Public Administration was formed, with Davorin Mlakar appointed minister.
Former Minister of Science, Education and Sports Dragan Primorac, who also stepped down the day after Sanader's resignation, was replaced by Radovan Fuchs only days before the Kosor cabinet was officially announced.
Although initially retained as Minister of Economy, Labour and Entrepreneurship, Damir Polančec resigned three months later on 30 October 2009 and was replaced by Đuro Popijač in November.
Bianca Matković, who was appointed Minister without portfolio in Kosor's cabinet, was relieved from her post in March 2010. Since no one was appointed to replace her, her post was also terminated.
