Maamoul are typical Lebanese shortbreads, usually stuffed with dates, but which can also be filled with pistachios, almonds or walnuts. Mix all ingredients together or separate all the dried fruits and mix each of them with date paste. In a large container, place the extra fine semolina, the flour, icing sugar, softened butter, baking powder.
What are Lebanese Maamoul Cookies? Lebanese date cookies or maamoul biscuits are a divine dessert. Lebanese serve these yummy treats on all occasions including Eid Al-Fitr, Lent, Easter, and many other holiday celebrations. In fact, making these scrumptious soft date-filled cookies is a huge family event in many Middle Eastern homes.
In the second stage you'll need milk, yeast, dry milk, and simple syrup. You can make maamoul without yeast but it is recommended to use it. For the filling, it is more common to use date filling and it is the tastier in my opinion but I am giving you the other options as well using pistachios and walnuts.
Bake the maamoul in the center of the preheated oven for 12 minutes until they are very light golden yellow. Let them cool on the baking sheet for at least 15 minutes. If you wish to sprinkle granulated sugar on the walnut or date maamoul, they must be slightly warm.
