Sanioura is a shortbread cookie that hails from Saida (Saidon) south of Lebanon, the city has a reputation for being home to some of the best Lebanese sweets, and one of the most celebrated desserts is Sanioura, it is scrumptious with a straightforward ingredient list: ghee, powdered sugar and flour. I\u2019ve offered the two famous variations: The same dough can deliver both plain and another sanioura with a sweet pistachio surprise inside.<\/p>\n

\"MAAMOUL<\/p>\n

Apple and Walnut Maamoul<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

These apple maamoul are just about the most adorable treats I\u2019ve ever had and remarkably, they are a cross between maamoul and apple pie cookie, they\u2019re a perfect treat when you want something out of the box.<\/p>\n

\"finaliii<\/p>\n

Carob Kaak, Kaak Bil Dibs<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

These carob cookies are crispy with rich flavor coming from carob molasses, they\u2019re completely refined sugar-free, vegan and a perfect choice for those seeking a healthier option, yes carob molasses or dibs al carob, as know in Arabic, is nutrient dense and high in antioxidants.<\/p>\n

\"a<\/p>\n

Lebanese Milk Kaak<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Lebanese Milk Kaak\/ Kaak Bhaleeb is a favored sweet ring bread that is plushy and pillowy, where every bite collapses softly in your mouth; it has a golden hue, and an agreeable mahlab flavor \u2014 might be the rolls of your dreams.<\/p>\n

\"bis<\/p>\n

Barazek, Syrian Sesame Cookies<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

These scrumptious cookies that go by the name Barazek are the signature cookies of Damascus Syria, they are made with ghee, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, they\u2019re thin, and moderately sweet and cruchy with a coating of nutty sesame seeds that deliver extra substance as well as a lively taste. If you\u2019ve ever had the pleasure of nibbling barazek, you alread value its nutty and buttery flavor combination.<\/p>\n

\"k<\/p>\n

Lebanese Sweet Kaak<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Crispy, crunchy Lebanese sweet kaak cookies that pair beautifully with tea, and are perfect too to dunk them in a cup of hot salep, they are supposed to be a bit hard and crispy with a pleasant crunch in every bite.\u00a0 Seasoned with anise seeds and mahlab, their flavor is warm and fragrant, and are coated with sesame seeds that add a nutty agreeable character; if you have been raised in Lebanon, then you must have seen them gracing the windows of most Lebanese bakeries.<\/p>\n

\"12<\/p>\n

Namoura, Lebanese Semolina Cake<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

A quintessential Lebanese and Middle Eastern dessert that goes by many names such as namoura, basbousa, hareesa, revani, safra and maybe more; it varies from country to country \u2014 depending on where it is being baked. Namoura could be one of the most requested recipes I have been asked for. So dear readers, here I am bringing you a flawless recipe, just like the pastry-style variety.<\/p>\n

\"t<\/p>\n

Sfouf, Lebanese Turmeric Cake<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Any occasion is more celebratory with this yellow Lebanese sheet cake that is called sfouf, it is the kind typically brought to gatherings in Lebanon and served with a cup of coffee or tea, flavorful enough to serve plain.<\/p>\n

\"mm<\/p>\n

Maamaoul Mad Bil Tamer, Lebanese Date Bars<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Maamoul Mad Bil Tamer\/ Date Bars are every date lover\u2019s dream. They have a supremely dense date middle, sandwiched in a buttery crumbly semolina dough; they appear in Lebanon in numerous varieties and fillings, they are made with either dates, walnuts or pistachios. The word\u00a0 mad literally translates to spread, so maamoul mad means spread in a pan or tray.\u00a0Here, forget about the individual maamoul molding and baking batch by batch, just one pan and you\u2019re done, yes way less tedious to prepare without compromising on taste.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"maamoul<\/p>\n

\"kaak<\/p>\n

Date Ring Kaak, Kaak Al Asawer<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cDate Ring Kaak\u201d from Palestine that\u00a0 goes often by the name \u201cKaak Al Asawer\u201d which literally translates to bracelet cookies. They are not your ordinary cookies, but would describe them as sort of crispy and fragrant bites made with a spicy dough that surrounds an enticing date filling; in short, the contrast of crisp kaak and dense dates is magical, and a must have if you are a date lover like most Middle Easterns including me, no matter how it is served, we have a close relationship with dates, and these \u201cDate Ring Kaak\u201d will never fail to impress you.<\/p>\n

\"cookies
\u00a0Almond Paste Stuffed Cookies, Kaak al Louz<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Iraqi Kleicha<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Two crispy dough sandwiched liberally with a date paste then the whole thing is rolled into a log. When sliced, the date creates an interesting pattern. But still don\u2019t obsess if yours doesn\u2019t form a perfect pinwheel, they are meant to have that rustic look! They are a staple treat in Iraqi households around Eid and would make a light, refreshing addition to your holiday dessert platter, though a bit of a project to make but worth every minute of it.<\/p>\n

\"ghraybeh<\/p>\n

Ghraybeh, Middle Eastern Melt in your Mouth Cookies<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A much loved Lebanese and Middle Eastern holiday treat. Ghraybeh are mini cookie pastries that have a smooth texture and shaped into ring-like cookies. When you bite into them, you first hear a crunch, that is followed by that melting sensation on your tongue that is unlike any other cookie I have had,\u00a0 maybe similar to shortbread cookies, but with deaper flavor notes coming from the ghee. Ghraybeh are always a hit around the holidays, but beware they are highly addictive, and resisting them is hard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
