Ingredients
To start, make sure you have the following ingredients on hand:
- 3.5 cups of flour
- 75 grams of butter (at room temperature)
- 1 egg
- Half a cup of oil
- Two teaspoons of salt
- One cup of tea with milk
- 1.5 cups of baking powder
- Egg yolk (for decoration)
- 4-5 tablespoons of sesame seeds
- 4-5 tablespoons of black cumin
Dough Preparation
To make the dough, simply follow these easy steps:
Mix the Ingredients: In a deep bowl, combine the flour, butter, egg, oil, salt, baking powder, and tea with milk. Knead until you achieve a uniform and smooth dough.
Divide and Shape: Divide the dough into medium pieces and shape them into rounds with your palm. This step is like molding clay—have fun with it!
Shaping and Filling
Customize Your Delight: If desired, you can add your favorite filling to the center of each dough portion. From melted chocolate to fresh fruits, the choice is yours!
Seal and Combine: Wrap the filling with the dough, making sure to seal the edges well. Merge the dough ends so the filling stays in the center.
Decoration and Baking
Prepare for the Oven: Place the delights on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. This will prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Time to Decorate!: Generously sprinkle the sesame seeds and black cumin over the delights. This will not only add a flavor kick but also an attractive visual appeal.
Baking Time: Preheat your oven to 175 degrees Celsius (347 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake the delights for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden and cooked through.
Serve and Enjoy
Once ready, remove the delights from the oven and let them cool to room temperature. Then, serve them with your favorite beverage and savor each bite.
