I’ve been making Melomakarona - Greek honey cookies, for as long as I can remember and I’ve finally perfected them. Make sure to use a great quality delicate extra virgin olive oil and Greek thyme honey for best results. FULL RECIPE BELOW.
RECIPE: MELOMAKARONA - GREEK HONEY COOKIES
Dough
1 cup Good quality fruity extra virgin olive oil olive oil (250 ml)
100 gm sugar ( 6 Tbsp)
90 ml orange juice (6 Tbsp)
25 ml brandy (2 Tbsp.)
390 gm pastry flour ( 3 cups )
120 gm fine semolina (3/4 cup )
1 tsp. baking powder (5 gm)
2 tsp. ground cloves (6 gm)
2 tsp. ground cinnamon (6 gm)
¼ tsp. Allspice ( 1 gm)
Nutmeg to taste
1/2 tsp. baking soda (2 gm)
Syrup
3/4 cup Greek amber honey (175 ml)
3/4 cup sugar (175 ml)
3/4 cup water (175 ml)
1 tsp. ground cinnamon (5 ml)
1 cup finely chopped walnuts, for garnish (250 ml), optional
* Additional Note about temperature of cookie . In video I said they were hot but I cooled them to warm before dipping them into the hot syrup. If they are too hot, they will fall apart.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
Whisk together the wet ingredients, with sugar and spices, in a medium bowl. Over a piece of parchment paper, sift flour, baking powder and baking soda 3 times.
Add the sifted dry ingredients to the oil mixture and stir with wooden spoon until mixture just holds together. Dough will not be fully smooth but should hold together. Note: texture of dough might vary depending on the protein level of your flour.
Pinch off about 1 1/2 tbsp. portions of dough (25- 27 gm ) and form into little flat oblongs (football shapes). Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet 2-inches apart. Bake in oven at 350 degrees convection F for 25- 30 minutes, or until evenly browned.
Syrup
Boil honey, sugar, water, and cinnamon for 8-10 minutes, until deep amber colour and slightly reduced. Remove from heat. While syrup is still hot, and cookies are warm but not HOT, using slotted spoon place cookies 6-8 at a time- into syrup for about 2-3 minutes, turning often to completely coat. Transfer to a large baking sheet or pan and arrange in a single layer. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts , if desired. Repeat with remaining cookies.
Makes about 36 delicious cookies( 25 gm each raw cookie dough )
