What is Gerebiç with walnut?
Gerebiç with walnut is a traditional filled cookie associated with Mersin province in southern Turkey, particularly the Silifke area. Its dough is commonly made with semolina and flour, shaped in a patterned mould and filled with walnuts; some regional recipes include spices. Baking gives it a firm, lightly crisp exterior and a tender, nutty centre.
It is often made for holidays and shared with tea or coffee, though it also makes a satisfying sweet bite any time. The dough and walnut filling make it energy-dense, with much of its fat coming from the nuts.
