Žufenjaki

Žufenjaki or kukuruzna zlevanka sa žufom is a traditional dish originating from the Međimurje region. Although there are some variations, this savory pie is usually made with a combination of corn flour, butter, žufa (pumpkin seeds), sugar, salt, and water or milk.

The pumpkin seeds are pounded and mixed with the corn flour, butter, sugar, salt, and water or milk in order to make the dough. The dough is stretched and cut into desired size, and it's then placed in a buttered baking dish. Some butter or pork fat is placed on top of the dough as well, and the savory pie is then baked until golden brown.
