Frequently Asked Questions About Acma (poğaça type)
What is acma (poğaça-type pastry)?
Acma is a soft, yeasted Turkish pastry with a slightly oily, tender crumb. It is commonly shaped into a ring or twist and served plain, though bakeries and home cooks also make filled versions.
Is acma the same as simit?
No. Acma is soft and bread-like, while simit has a firmer, crisp crust and is usually heavily coated with sesame seeds. Their doughs and preparation methods differ, even though both are popular Turkish bakery foods.
How is acma different from poğaça?
Acma is usually softer, more elastic and shaped as a ring or twist. Poğaça often has a round or oval shape and may be filled; the names can overlap in bakery styles, but the textures and shapes are distinct.
Is acma sweet or savory?
Acma is usually mildly savory rather than dessert-sweet, although its dough may contain a little sugar to support the yeast. It is commonly eaten plain or with savory fillings such as cheese or olives.
What ingredients are used to make acma?
Acma is typically made with flour, yeast, milk or yogurt, egg, oil and salt. Some recipes add sugar, and sesame may be sprinkled on top. Bakery and home recipes vary, so the exact ingredients are not fixed.
Why does acma turn out dense instead of soft?
Acma can turn dense if the yeast is inactive, the dough is under-proofed, or too much flour is added while kneading. Let the dough rise until visibly expanded and keep it soft rather than stiff when shaping.
What fillings can you put in acma?
Cheese, olives and potato are common savory fillings for acma, while plain acma is also widely enjoyed. Use a modest amount of filling and seal the dough well so it does not leak during baking.
What is acma usually served with?
Acma is often served at Turkish breakfast with tea, cheese, olives, tomatoes or cucumbers. It also works as a bakery snack on its own; its soft, rich dough pairs especially well with fresh, savory accompaniments.
How should you store acma to keep it soft?
Store acma in a closed bread bag or airtight container at room temperature after it has cooled completely. Trapping steam while it is still warm can make the crust damp; reheat a piece briefly if it has become firm.
Can you freeze acma?
Yes, acma freezes well. Let it cool completely, wrap pieces individually or place them in a freezer-safe airtight bag, then thaw and warm them before serving to bring back a softer texture.

What is Acma (poğaça type)?
Acma (poğaça type) is a soft, yeasted Turkish bakery pastry, made with an enriched dough and often shaped into a ring. It is closely related to poğaça, though acma is especially known for its airy crumb and lightly oily feel.
Mildly savoury and tender, it is commonly eaten at breakfast or with tea in Turkey, either plain or alongside cheese, olives and fresh vegetables. Its nutrition is mainly carbohydrate from the flour, with fat contributing to its richer texture; it provides about 350 calories per 100 g.
