Gogoși (Romanian: [ɡoˈɡoʃʲ]),[1] known as pancove in Transylvania, pampuște in Bukovina and crofne in Banat[2][3] are Romanian filled doughnuts. Gogoși is the plural form of the Romanian word gogoașă ([ɡoˈɡo̯a.ʃə]).

Gogoși are pieces of dough shaped into a flattened sphere that are deep-fried in oil and optionally dusted with icing sugar.[4] They have a fluffy and airy consistency, no hole and are often filled. Gogoși fillings include chocolate, apricot jam, strawberry jam, cream cheese, or feta cheese.
