Hi Binnur, I lost my sister-in-law's lemon cake recipe and my daughter has requested it for her birthday which is next week. I remember some of the ingredients: yogurt,eggs,flour,baking power or soda? oil, and lemon zest. I don't remember the measurements. Maybe you have a similar recipe that you can post. My husband and kids love it! My version is to bake it in a bunt pan and then filling the hole with fresh fruit. Then I make a lemon glaze with powered sugar, water and lemon juice that I drizzel over the top. Thanks for all your great recipes! My family loves all the recipes that I have tried so far. My daughter even made a little song for you...."What's for dinner? Ask Binnur?"
Tammy
Hi Tammy:)
Thank you for the nice comment. I loved the song that your daughter
sings...please give her my best wishes for her birthday:) I only have one Lemon cake recipe. It might be the same as the one you had or not:) I understand you need it this coming week. That's why I am just writing it here for you. Your version seems so presentable and delicious:) I use whipped cream for top:)
6 egg whites
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
6 egg yolks
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
1 cup yogurt
3 cups flour (cake flour would be better)
1 tsp baking soda
1 pinch salt
Mix the egg whites and 1/2 cup sugar until it's fluffy. Put aside.
Mix the butter, sugar, egg yolks, lemon juice, lemon zest and yogurt
in another cup. Slowly add the flour, baking soda and salt and mix.
Gently add egg whites in the sugar mixture and fold it. Pour it into
an oiled mold. Preheat oven to 400 F and bake until a toothpick comes
out clean.
I hope this helps:)
Sevgilerimle,

Binnur
Merhaba Binnur,
I just discovered your website by chance last week and I think it's great! I am so impressed about your variety. No more worries about what to cook anymore. Thank you. Dear Binnur, I love to bake and am very good at it. However, I have been trying for years to create the perfect "Peynirli Kek" and never found the right recipe. You know the one that looks and feels like a cake and don't have a wet look when you cut it? The recipes with yogurt instead of milk sounds good. Do you or any of your talented readers have any recipe that I can use and finally accomplish this goal? If you do can you provide the measurements for Canada? Also what is the right amount of flour in "CUP" for "1 su bardagi" and what is the "gr. or cup" for "1 kucuk paket margarin"?
I appreciate your time, my best wishes and thank you,
Jan
Hi Jan,
Thank you:) I am going to post Peynirli Kek recipe in the future:)
On the right of the website there is a "Measurements" section. You will find all the answers you ask. 1 kucuk paket margarin, I believe, could be 125 gr?
Hi Binnur,
Do you recipe for the salt mahleb black seed cookies my old neighboor from Gazianteb used to make it?
Also do you have the recipe for pismaniye?
Thank you very much
Hi,
We use Mahlep for so many different kinds of pastries. I am not sure which one you are asking for. Try this recipe;

Hi Binnur
Do you have a recipe for mantarli kurabiye? The ones that are made with cornstarch instead of flour? I raelly love them but I couldn't decipher the recipe from my Turkish friends, my Turkce just isn't that good!
Jennifer
Hi Jeniffer,
Yes, I have a recipe for Mantar Kurabiye:) I am going to post it in the future.
Hi,
I just found your site yesterday and really like that you have all these recipes in English, I was looking for a simple basic chocolate cake. I know the consistency of it is different from the cakes here in the USA. Do you have one that you can post?
Hi,
I am going to post in the future more cake recipes includes chocolate cake.
I'm sort of in a rush for a chocolate cake recipe do you know when you plan to post one?
Hi,
I am not sure yet.

Hi Binnur, I wanted to know if u could tell me how to make the turkish baklava (in a cigar shape), what would i use for the filling and how would i make the syrup?? i have tried a wet/syrupy baklava before, but want to try one that was a little dryer...please help thanks.
Emma
Hi Emma,
I've posted some desserts recipes with the syrup. Please check the Dessert Recipes section on the right side of my blog. You can always use less amount of syrup for the desserts:)I am going to more in the future:)
Take care,
Hello! This site is amazing! I just returned from living in Istanbul-I can't wait to make these recipes so I can relive my time there. I am curious about ay çoreği recipes. They were my favorite treat. Çok teşekkür ederim Bınnur!
Hi,Merheba Binnur

Hi Anka,

If the cake you bake is not soft, try to put a little bit less amount of flour.
Sevgilerimle,

Hi. I love your website. one of my Turkish colleagues made a syrup cake on Eid ul Fitr which was absolutely yummy. I dont remember the name but it was a syrup cake with black poppy seeds and a light green colour topped with sweetened fresh cream. Wondering if you would be able to match a recipe to my rather sketchy description. would love to try and bake it myself
regards
Sarah
