Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fine semolina
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cups Almond milk
- 0.75 cup Date syrup
- 2 tablespoons Tahini
- 0.25 cup Pine nuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the fine semolina, whole wheat flour, baking powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, almond milk, date syrup, and tahini until you have a smooth liquid mixture.
Gradually add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or spatula until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the pine nuts evenly over the top of the batter.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and allow the sfouf to cool in the baking dish for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Slice the sfouf into squares or diamond shapes and serve. Enjoy!
