Elazig Stone Bread Dessert Product Description and Distinctive Features: Elazığ Stone Bread Dessert is a regional sweet prepared by baking a dough made with special purpose wheat flour, yeast, eggs, milk, and salt on a griddle, soaking it in syrup after baking, sprinkling walnuts between some layers, stacking it layer by layer on a tray, and baking it in the oven. Elazığ Stone Bread Dessert distinguishes itself from similar sweets made in the Southeastern Anatolia region by using yeast and eggs in the dough, and by spreading butter on the griddle before baking and on the thin dough after baking, instead of using tail fat. Due to the use of butter, it has a lighter taste and aroma. Although the tradition of making stone bread, obtained by baking thin dough on a griddle, dates back to much earlier periods in the region, the dessert made from this bread is mentioned in a source from 1968. Especially produced on special occasions such as holidays, weddings, and engagements, Elazığ Stone Bread Dessert holds a significant place in the culinary culture of the Elazığ province and is associated with its reputation through geographical boundaries.
