Prekmurska gibanica (Prekmurje layer pastry) is a type of Slovenian gibanica or layered pastry.[1] It contains poppy seeds, walnuts, apples, raisins and quark fillings. Although native to Prekmurje, it has achieved the status of a national specialty of Slovenia. The unique sweetmeat shows the variety of agriculture in this region. The name gibanica comes from the dialect expression güba and in this case refers to a fold.
