Another great dish.  Thanks farfallina - a bit like a kugelhopf recipe that I used to make years ago - I love the poppy seeds and walnuts.  I used to also have some dark chocolate mixed in too 

[farfallina]

Dark chocolate? It must be very tasty also your version then!
I'd like to have it for breakfast!

Can someone please tell me what EVO is?

judydawn you've become like press officer about EVO

Maybe I should start considering to write without abbreviation

[judydawn]

    I'm pretty sure I asked the same question in my early days on this forum too farfallina so it is not a problem to get the message out there when asked.

farfallina, thanks for posting this recipe.  I had some problems with the recipe as I didn't have any poppy seeds.   For the filling I mixed together,  walnuts, chocolate,                crasins, ground almonds and the EVO.   I also ended up with very large rolls/scrolls.   Next time I will make 12.  What I love about this recipe is the Dough.   Very suited to making any type of scroll,  and I will definately be making this again.

With chocolate? Wow! It must be very tasty also your version. I will try with chocolate too next time
I am happy you liked it.
Thank you for feedback

farfallina, i think these would be very tasty and will try and make them tomorrow before i go out.

can you have a look at a recipe i posted and let me know if i can improve it in any way? i have never made Elmali Kurabiye before and the recipe was from the newspaper and I had to guess regarding preparing the triangles and rolling up. i think that the apple can be pureed somewhat a bit more, and i found that it is often grated prior to cooking? i look forward to your expert opinion

Farfallina,  these were delicious with the modifications,   also cut in half and toasted for breakfast.   I will certainly try your original version when I buy the poppy seeds.  Thanks again

[farfallina]

I am happy you enjoyed them achookwoman
I had them for breakfast too when I cooked them
Using poppy seed as an ingredient to put inside will give a particular taste. It's not like when you sprinkle a little poppy seeds
You will be actually tasting them. It is a specialty. Some like a lot some might not. We do love it. I just wanted to make it clear when you try next time. Since you loved your version, maybe you should do the same way. You could fill 2 rolls with poppy seed to try. 

Creampuff i will answer you under the related post
