Ekmek kadayıfı or ekmek kataifi, whose dessert is it anyway?

Ekmek kadayıfı and ekmek kataifi are both traditional Turkish desserts made with shredded phyllo dough, syrup, and nuts. The main difference between the two is the type of phyllo dough used. Ekmek kadayıfı is made with regular phyllo dough, while ekmek kataifi is made with a more shredded and fine phyllo dough.

Both desserts are commonly found in Turkish cuisine and can be served as a sweet treat after a meal or with a cup of tea or coffee. The dessert is usually topped with pistachios or walnuts and can be accompanied by a scoop of ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

While both desserts are popular in Turkey, ekmek kadayıfı is the more commonly known and preferred dessert in Turkish cuisine.
