Fluffy Honeycomb Buns Glazed With Cardamom-Infused Honey | Khaliat Al Nahl Recipe | Food & Wine Cooks
  • 2 years ago
Chef Hakim Sulaimani of Yafa Cafe shares his recipe for khaliat al nahl, or honeycomb buns. This traditional Yemeni pastry consists of cloudlike balls of dough that are filled with cream cheese, drenched in cardamom-infused honey, and topped with crunchy white sesame seeds and black nigella seeds. Baked until perfectly golden brown, these delicious cakes have a soft-and-fluffy texture and a sweet-yet-tart flavor that pairs perfectly with a strong cup of Yemeni coffee for a sweet breakfast or afternoon pick-me-up.
