#10. Ashure (Fruit & Grain Pudding)

Since Albania is a country of many crops, it’s not surprising that a traditional Albanian dessert is made with wheat porridge.

#11. Revani (Lemon Cake)

Originating in the south of Albania, revani is a traditional Albanian dessert that consists of flour cake soaked in sweet lemon syrup. Revani is mainly prepared for family occasions and celebrations, which Albanians have an abundance of. 

Although it has a slight lemon flavor, revani still remains a sweet and delicate dessert, pairing perfectly with tea or coffee.

#12. Kurabie (Powdered Sugar Cookies)

Kurabie is another traditional Albanian cookie made with flour, sugar, butter, and yogurt. The yogurt gives them a creamy flavor, but keep in mind that they crumble easily, so make sure to eat them carefully. 

Kurabie are usually covered in powdered sugar, and you can also enjoy them with a cup of hot coffee or tea.
