About Kurabiye

Kurabiye is a beloved type of cookie originating from Turkish cuisine, known for its crumbly texture and buttery, melt-in-your-mouth richness. Traditionally made with simple ingredients like flour, butter, powdered sugar, and sometimes flavors such as vanilla, nuts, or citrus zest, Kurabiye offers a delightful balance of sweetness and texture. Variations might include fillings like jam or chocolate, or toppings like powdered sugar for extra indulgence. While Kurabiye is enjoyed as a treat or accompaniment to tea or coffee, its high butter and sugar content make it calorie-dense and best consumed in moderation. On the positive side, homemade versions allow for ingredient control, potentially incorporating whole-grain flours or reducing sugar. Kurabiye provides a cultural connection to Turkish traditions and is often shared during celebrations, symbolizing warmth and hospitality.
