Cypriot tahino pies

this is one of the recipes that made me join here

Preparation steps

  • in butter put butter, oil, milk, water, egg and sugar, mix a little with a wire and add yeast, mix well. Add flour and knead the dough. Leave to rest for 1/2 hour. Meanwhile, mix the filling ingredients in one bowl. Separately in 1 deep plate pour a glass of warm water and 2 tbsp. Stir the sugar to dissolve and set aside.
  • Divide the dough into 4 parts, make balls. With the help of flour, roll out with a rolling pin not too thin.
  • fill with stuffing. I do all 4 at once so that after the whips come to me equally
  • Open a hole in the middle of each circle and spread it with your fingers towards the end of the roll // it is not difficult the dough is pliable to work on // Now divide each circle into 2 parts and roll the twist from each part. Dip each roll in a plate with water and sugar and arrange them in a pan with greaseproof paper. Sprinkle // abundantly // with sugar. Leave a little to come // 20 tak min. but it depends on the heat in the house // Bake at 180 * 1/2 hours.
  • here they wait to arrive before baking.
  • and this time I worked half with tahini and half with pumpkin // 1 cup of pumpkin puree sugar if desired and a little cinnamon // Experience says that it should not be mixed because these with pumpkin need a little more time to bake // during that time with tahini be a little baked .. We didn't mind but it's good to know PLEASANT !!!!!!!!! j
