Kayısı Tatlısı

Vegan, dessert  · 

Kayısı Tatlısı is a delicious arpicot desert from turkey. It is really sweet, but the addition of Tahini makes for a really balanced desert! And it is quite easy to put together, making it nice to finally finish that jar of tahini that’s been sitting at the back of the fridge for a while now
