In a bowl, mix the finely chopped walnuts, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon together. Set it aside for later use.

Take a small amount of kadayif dough and roll it into a ball, about the size of a walnut. Flatten the ball with your hand, creating a small well in the center.

Place a teaspoon of the walnut filling into the well of the flattened dough. Carefully fold the dough over the filling, shaping it into a round doughnut shape. Repeat this process with the remaining dough and filling.

In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place a few doughnuts into the pan, ensuring they don't touch each other. Fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy on both sides. Remove the fried doughnuts from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

In a separate saucepan, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the water and bring it to a gentle simmer.

Dip each fried doughnut into the butter and water mixture, coating it thoroughly. Place the coated doughnuts onto a serving plate.

For the final touch, sprinkle some additional chopped walnuts on top of the doughnuts. You can also dust them with powdered sugar if desired.
