Bread With Tahini And Syrup Recipe
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 2 c. Flour
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 4 Tbsp. Unsalted butter softened
- 1/2 c. Whole lowfat milk plus
- 1 Tbsp. Whole lowfat milk
- 1/3 c. Tahini
- 2 Tbsp. Maple syrup
- 2 Tbsp. Unsalted butter melted, and cooled slightly Melted butter Maple syrup warmed, for drizzling
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine flour, salt and butter. Mix lightly with your fingertips till dough forms pea-sized pcs. Stir in lowfat milk and lightly knead till dough forms a ball. Transfer dough to a buttered bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest 1 hour.
- On a lightly floured board, shape dough into a log and divide into 8 pcs. Roll each piece into a ball and place on the floured board under a slightly damp towel for 30 min.
- Stir together the tahini, maple syrup and melted butter, and set aside.
- Roll four of the dough balls into 7-inch rounds, and coat the surface of three of the rounds with a thin layer of the tahini mix and stack them on top of each other. Place the fourth, uncoated round on top and press the edges together to seal the stack. Place a towel over the top and repeat process with remaining four dough balls. (You should have extra tahini mix left over.) Let them rest for 30 min.
- Place one of the stacks on a lightly floured board, sprinkle with a little flour and gently roll into a larger 9-inch round, about 1/4-inch thick. Spread half of the remaining tahini mix over the top, and roll up like a jelly roll. Use a sharp knife to cut into 4 pcs and place them under a towel. Repeat with remaining round. Let them rest for 15 min, then roll each piece of dough into a 6-inch square.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet or possibly griddle over medium heat and brush lightly with the melted butter. Place one square of dough in the skillet and cook for about 1 minute, or possibly till dough begins to bubble and turn light brown. Brush bread lightly with melted butter, flip and bake other side for 30 seconds to a minute, or possibly till slightly crisp on the outside but still soft. Transfer bread to a plate, cover with foil to keep hot, and cook remaining bread.
- Serve warm, drizzled with hot maple syrup.
- This recipe yields 8 squares.
