Paprenjak in Other Countries
Peppery biscuits are scattered across Europe, but are particular sought after in Germanic and Scandinavian countries. It's understood that a Croatian family moved to Sweden taking their grandmother Teresa with them and her delicious recipe for pepper cookies, Paprenjak.
Each country that has adopted Paprenjak have adjusted the recipe for their region's taste. Swedish biscuit called Pepparkakor contains orange flavours. The German biscuit Pfeffernusse contains aniseed, and the Icelandic biscuit called Piparkökur contains cardamom and paprika.
