Allspice ( 1 gm) Nutmeg to taste 1/2 tsp. baking soda (2 gm) Syrup 1 cup Greek amber honey (250 ml) 1 cup sugar (250ml) 1 cup water (250 ml) 1 tsp. ground cinnamon (5 ml) 2 cups finely chopped walnuts, for garnish (500 ml), optional Preheat oven to 350 degrees F Whisk together the wet ingredients, with sugar and spices, in a medium bowl. Over a piece of parchment paper, sift flour, baking powder and baking soda 3 times. Add the sifted dry ingredients to the oil mixture and stir with wooden spoon until mixture just holds together. Dough will not be fully smooth but should hold together. Note: texture of dough might vary depending on the protein level of your flour. Pinch off 2 1/2 tbsp. portions of dough and form into little flat oblongs (football shapes). Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet 2-inches apart. Bake in oven at 350 degrees convection F for 25- 30 minutes, or until evenly browned. Syrup Boil honey, sugar, water, and cinnamon for 10- 12 minutes, until deep amber colour and slightly reduced. Remove from heat. While syrup is still hot, and cookies are still hot, using slotted spoon place cookies 6-8 at a time- into syrup for about 4 minutes, turning often to completely coat. Transfer to a large baking sheet or pan and arrange in a single layer. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts , if desired. Repeat with remaining cookies.
