Known to originate from the coastal city of Kavala in Greece, these cookies are a very popular recipe in our country as well. Its dough, which smells like butter and roasted almonds, can maintain its freshness and crispness for a long time because it does not contain eggs or dairy products. Almonds, both ground into flour and left in large pieces, are a must for this cookie.
Although it resembles a flour cookie at first glance, it proves that it is much different from a flour cookie with its flour and almonds that are roasted before starting to knead the dough and the minced meat that is cut into crescent shapes after kneading.
If you have not tried making Kavala cookies before, we strongly recommend that you try it at the first opportunity. If you have made it many times before, we recommend you to try it with this delicious recipe. Enjoy your meal!
