Last updated: · Prepared by: QuickCalo Team
Short answer
One piece of cheese gozleme (about 215 g) has about 635 kcal and 20 g of protein; 100 g has about 295 kcal. What changes the calories most is the butter on the griddle and the amount of cheese. The values are for a gozleme filled with white cheese and cooked on a griddle with butter.
Gozleme is a thin, hand-rolled dough folded around a filling and cooked on a large dome-shaped griddle. Cheese is the most popular filling, often with parsley, and it is a favourite at village breakfasts, markets and roadside stops.
The dough itself is just flour and water, so most of the variation comes from the filling and from the butter brushed on while it cooks. Potato and spinach fillings are also common and slightly lighter than cheese.
