Hatay katıklı bread is a regional Turkish flatbread topped with a savory mixture of pepper paste, çökelek cheese and spices. It is baked until the thin dough is cooked, with recipes varying between bakeries and households.
Hatay katıklı bread tastes savory, tangy and peppery, with a soft, crumbly note from the çökelek. Its heat varies with the pepper paste and spices, so one bakery’s version may be much milder than another’s.
Hatay katıklı bread is traditionally baked after its topping is spread over thin dough. A very hot oven gives it a cooked base and lightly browned edges; bakery ovens can produce a different texture from a home oven.
Hatay katıklı bread is closely related to what many people call biberli ekmek, and the names can overlap. Recipes differ by locality, but çökelek in the topping is a defining feature of many Hatay katıklı bread versions.
Hatay katıklı bread can be mildly peppery or quite spicy. The amount and type of pepper paste make the biggest difference, so ask the bakery about its topping if you prefer a milder piece.
Çökelek, a Turkish curd cheese, is the traditional cheese used on Hatay katıklı bread. Its crumbly texture works well with pepper paste and spices; substituting another cheese changes the characteristic flavor.
Yes, Hatay katıklı bread can be eaten for breakfast, though it is not limited to the morning meal. In Hatay it also works as a filling snack or a simple meal, often served warm.
Yes, but pepper paste gives Hatay katıklı bread much of its characteristic color and savory flavor. Using a mild sweet-pepper paste can reduce the heat while keeping the topping closer to its familiar style.
Yes, Hatay katıklı bread can be frozen once it has cooled. Wrap individual portions tightly to protect them from drying out, then warm them after thawing to bring back a more pleasant texture.
Store leftover Hatay katıklı bread in a covered container in the refrigerator after it cools, and reheat it thoroughly before eating. A pan or oven helps the bread stay firmer than reheating it in a microwave.

Hatay katıklı bread is a regional flatbread from Hatay in southern Turkey. A thin dough is topped with pepper paste, çökelek—a crumbly fresh cheese—and spices, then baked. It is best enjoyed warm, when the bread is soft with lightly crisp edges and the savoury, gently spicy topping is fragrant.
In Hatay it can be eaten for breakfast or as a snack, often alongside tea; fresh vegetables and olives make easy companions. It is mainly a carbohydrate-rich bread, with 9.2 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter meal, pair a piece with a generous salad or sliced tomatoes and greens.
