Walnut Turkish delight poğaça is a soft, baked Turkish pastry filled with chopped walnuts and pieces of lokum, or Turkish delight. The sweet filling softens in the oven, giving the centre a chewy, sticky texture.
To make walnut Turkish delight poğaça, enclose small pieces of Turkish delight and chopped walnuts in portions of poğaça dough, seal them, and bake. Pinch the seams firmly so the softened filling stays inside.
Walnut Turkish delight poğaça is sweet, mainly because of its lokum filling. The pastry dough itself may be only mildly sweet, while the walnuts add a rich, nutty flavour that balances the filling.
The filling usually leaks from walnut Turkish delight poğaça when the dough is not sealed well or the lokum pieces are too large. Use small pieces and leave enough dough around the filling to close the seam securely.
Yes, homemade lokum can be used in walnut Turkish delight poğaça if it is firm enough to cut and handle. Cut it into small pieces; very soft lokum can become difficult to enclose and may leak during baking.
Walnut Turkish delight poğaça can be served warm or at room temperature. Let it cool briefly after baking so the hot lokum filling settles; serving it warm keeps the pastry soft and brings out the walnut aroma.
Line the tray with baking paper before baking walnut Turkish delight poğaça. Some lokum may soften and escape through a seam, and the sugar in it can stick to an unlined tray.
Yes, you can prepare the dough for walnut Turkish delight poğaça ahead and refrigerate it covered. Bring it back to a workable temperature before shaping, then add the lokum and walnuts just before baking.
Reheat walnut Turkish delight poğaça briefly in a low oven to soften the pastry without scorching the filling. Check the centre before eating, because lokum can become very hot and sticky as it warms.
Yes, pecans can replace walnuts in walnut Turkish delight poğaça, although the flavour will be milder and slightly sweeter. Chop them into small pieces so they mix evenly with the lokum filling.

Walnut Turkish delight poğaça brings together poğaça dough, chopped walnuts and pieces of lokum, the chewy sweet known in English as Turkish delight. This Turkish bakery pastry has a soft, rich crumb, with a pleasantly chewy, sweet centre and the earthy crunch of walnuts.
In Turkey, it is commonly enjoyed with tea as a breakfast treat or an afternoon snack; elsewhere, it also pairs naturally with coffee or unsweetened tea. It is a filling, carbohydrate-forward pastry, with walnuts adding richness. At 395 kcal per 100 g, a smaller piece can work well when you want a taste alongside a drink rather than a substantial snack.
