Combine the wheat flour, yogurt, egg, vegetable oil, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
Knead the dough for 8 minutes until smooth, cover it, and let it rest for 20 minutes.
Coarsely crush the walnuts and mix them with the granulated sugar; melt the butter and let it cool slightly.
Divide the dough into 10 balls and roll each one out very thin like yufka, dusting with starch.
Lightly brush the sheets with melted butter, scatter the walnut filling over them, and roll loosely around a rolling pin.
Scrunch the rolls and arrange them on the tray, then drizzle the remaining butter over the top.
Bake the kivratma at 185°C for 32-34 minutes, until golden.
Remove the tray from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes, then slice once the crisp texture settles.
💡 Tip: Roll the dough very thin but do not compress the filling; the secret of crisp kivratma is leaving air between the walnuts and the pastry.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve kivratma at room temperature in small slices with strong tea and optional plain ice cream without clotted cream.
