Baklava, found across the Balkans and Caucasus, is a dessert treat made from sheets of filo pastry. Bosnian Baklava looks a bit like a small cake with layers of nuts, syrup and honey. As the Ottomans expanded their Empire, they brought this favourite sweet, which has now evolved into Bosnia’s own.
Bosnian Butter Cookies are called “Šape” (shah-pay), which means bear’s paw or bear’s claw. They get their name from the paw shaped tins they were originally baked in. Any shape of small mold can be used. I was delighted with how the Bosnian Butter Cookies turned out using my Nordic Ware tartlette pan.
This recipe for tulumbe is a very sweet and popular dessert in the Balkans. The batter is similar to a French pate a choux dough, and the appearance is similar to an unfilled, unglazed eclair. Tulumbe are traditionally fried and then soaked in simple syrup overnight. I prefer to bake mine as I’ve done here. Croatian Bajadera Torte.
