Vegan Ma'moul/ Klaycha

recipe from an Iraqi friend. The Iraqi version is naturally vegan, apart from the egg glaze on top.

about to try with spelt flour... and an Oat milk as a glaze.

 ------

three cups of plain flour
3/4 cup of sunflower oil
pinch of salt
tea spoon baking powder
mix together

add lukewarm water bit by bit until it becomes a dough
can add some rosewater to the dough too.

cover it with a towel and a leave for a bit (few minutes) while you get the date paste ready

date paste, add cardamon or aniseed (I presume powder…)
to make the date paste, just heat the chopped date with some oil to make a paste

try oatly as a glaze before baking. It's usually egg.

no need to oil the mould as the dough is oily.

oven on 160C until they are baked, (slightly red)
