Croatian krafne (this is plural form) or pokladnice, Bosnian (krofne), Serbian (krofne) and Slovenian (krof) are desserts similar to doughnuts (but without holes). They are round and usually filled with jelly, marmalade or jam. They can also be filled with chocolate, 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 Berliner.
The recipe for home-made krafne includes yeast, milk, sugar, flour, salt, butter, eggs, rum, lemon peel, marmalade and powdered sugar.[1]
In Croatia, the consumption of krafne increases significantly during the yearly winter festival of poklade/fašnik/maškare.[2][3]
