Knead the flour, warm water, and salt into a smooth dough.
Divide the dough into 8 balls, cover, and rest for 15 minutes.
Melt the butter and mix it with the vegetable oil; prepare the walnuts and granulated sugar in a separate bowl.
Roll the dough balls thinly, brush with the fat mixture, and sprinkle with the walnut filling.
Fold the dough like an envelope, arrange on an oiled tray, and brush the tops with the remaining fat.
Bake the katlamas in a 190°C oven for 22 minutes, until the edges brown.
Rest the tray for 8 minutes, cut into squares, and serve warm.
💡 Tip: After brushing the dough with fat, let it rest for 5 minutes; if the butter sets immediately, the dough can tear while folding.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Cut the katlama into small squares and serve warm with strong unsweetened tea and optional kaymak.
