Baklava is one of Bosnia’s most iconic desserts, rooted in Ottoman culinary traditions. Made with delicate layers of hand-pulled dough (jufka) and a filling of finely chopped or ground walnuts, it’s baked to perfection and cut into diamond shapes.
After baking, it’s drenched in agda – a lemon-infused sugar syrup.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, baklava is traditionally prepared for special occasions, particularly for Ramadan and Eid celebrations.
Variations like Roses | Ružice and dzandar baklava also highlight the versatility of this beloved pastry, making it a must-try treat for visitors exploring Bosnian cuisine.
