Homemade Kete Bread – Stuffed Bread with Fried Flour

Homemade Kete Bread – Stuffed Bread with Fried Flour and Walnut

Kete bread is a traditional pastry found in bakeries across Central and Eastern Anatolia in Turkey. This delicious bread is filled with either fried flour or crushed walnuts, giving it a unique texture and flavor. My homemade version stays true to its authentic roots by using fried flour and adding crushed walnuts for extra richness. It pairs perfectly with a cup of tea or coffee. Enjoy!

Ingredients

For the Dough:

• 10-15 g fresh yeast (or 8 g dry yeast)
• ½ tsp sugar
• ½ cup melted butter
• ½ cup olive oil
• 1 cup warm whole milk
• 1 egg (plus 1 egg yolk for egg wash)
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 4-5 cups plain flour

This flavorful, soft bread will bring a taste of Anatolian tradition to your table!
