- 3 1/2 cups flour, sifted
- 1 cup milk (2% milk)
- 2 1/4 teaspoons yeast (1 envelope, 7 gr)
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg egg, beaten
- 1 cup tahini
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 egg egg, beaten
- sesame seeds
Instructions
Step 1
Pre heat oven to 325F.
Step 2
Combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in a bowl. In a small bowl combine egg and oil. Warm up the milk. Add the milk to the flour mixture, then add in the egg mixture to make a smooth, elastic and not sticky dough. If sticky add more flour.
Step 3
Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes. The dough won’t rise like other bread doughs, so don’t worry.
Step 4
Divide the dough into 12 pieces, cover and let them sit for around 20 minutes.
Step 5
Roll one ball of dough out to a very wide thin circle. Spread a thin layer of the tahini mixture. Starting at the longest edge, roll up the dough into a rope. Holding one end of the rope, start folding up so it makes a coiled bun. Gently flatten the bun with the rolling pin or with your hand. Place on a greased or lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Step 6
Brush the rolls with the beaten egg, then sprinkle a few sesame seeds over top. Bake 25-30 minutes or until light brown.
Step 7
Enjoy. Keep them in air tight containers. They taste good by themselves or smear them with butter.
