Ma9roudet Louz

👨🍳 Yapılışı
- 1
Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolks, orange blossom water, vanilla extract, and salt. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 2
Prepare the filling: In a separate bowl, combine the ground almonds and powdered sugar. Gradually add the lightly beaten egg whites and 1 tsp orange blossom water, mixing until a paste forms. It should be firm enough to shape.
- 3
Assemble the pastries: Roll out the dough thinly on a lightly floured surface. Cut into desired shapes (e.g., diamonds or squares). Place a small amount of almond filling in the center of each dough piece. Fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges, pressing firmly. You can use a fork to create decorative edges.
- 4
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the assembled pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- 5
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastries are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake.
- 6
Prepare the syrup: While the pastries are baking, combine honey and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in 1 tsp orange blossom water. Let it cool slightly.
- 7
Dip the warm pastries into the slightly cooled syrup, ensuring they are well coated. Let them drain on a wire rack.

Garnish with chopped pistachios, if desired. Allow to cool completely before serving.
💡 Profesyonel İpuçları
- ✓Ensure the almonds for the filling are ground very finely to achieve a smooth texture.
- ✓Do not overwork the dough, as this can make the pastries tough.
- ✓The syrup should not be too hot when dipping the pastries, or they will become soggy.
