Ingredients:

• 4 cups of flour
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tbsp freshly ground cinnamon
• 1 tbsp freshly ground cloves
• 1/2 cup of olive oil or unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp of honey
• 1 cup of Petimezi-(Greek wine must syrup)
• Grated zest from 1/2 orange
• 1 cup of Orange juice

Method:

• Sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and cloves into a large bowl, making a well in the center.
• Heat the olive oil or butter and pout into the flour mixture.
• Let it cool down a bit and with the palms of your hands mix the oil with the flour.
• In a smaller bowl, beat the honey, petimezi (must), grated orange zest, and 1/2 the orange juice and pour into the well.
• Mix together to make the dough adding the remaining orange juice as necessary.
• Turn onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until the dough is smooth but not stiff.
• If the dough is too stiff add some warm water to make it workable and smooth.
• Cover with a kitchen towel and leave to relax for 30 minutes or longer.
• Break off pieces of dough, about 2 tablespoonfuls each, and roll into snakes or any other shape you want, about 1/2 inch in diameter.
• Press the two ends together, forming oval wreaths, and place on an oiled or non-stick baking pan.
• Bake in a preheated oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (see conversions) for 15-20 minutes or until they are brown and crunchy, but not too hard.
