Krofne

Krofne (Albanian: Krafne, Bosnian: Krofne, Croatian: Krafne, Slovene: krofi, Serbian: Krofne, крофне, Macedonian: Крофни) are airy filled doughnuts. They are round and usually filled with jelly, marmalade, jam or chocolate as well as butter, nutella and cinnamon. They can also be filled with custard, or cream, but that is usually less common. The name comes from German Krapfen, and it is a variation of the Central European pastry known as the Berliner. They are also similar to beignets.
