Instructions
- 1
Dry the bread slices in a pan or a 180°C oven for 5 minutes until lightly toasted so they absorb milk well.
5 min05:00 - 2
Put the milk in a pot, add sugar, salt, and cinnamon, bring near a boil, and stir to dissolve the sugar.
- 3
Pit the dates, halve them, and let them steep in the hot milk for 2 to 3 minutes.
3 min03:00 - 4
Arrange the bread slices in a serving dish and pour the hot date milk over them, making sure no dry parts remain.
- 5
If desired, drizzle 1 tablespoon melted butter on top; once at room temperature, rest in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
1 hr60:00 - 6
Before serving, sprinkle optional walnuts or pistachios on top and serve cold.
💡 Tip: Lightly drying the bread first increases how much milk it absorbs and keeps the dessert from watering down. If the dates are firm, soak them briefly in hot milk.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with a cold glass of milk or plain Turkish coffee.
