There are two ways to make the Maamoul dough. First, with semolina (and flour), or with flour alone. The semolina way will require an overnight chill in the fridge, while the flour method can be prepared and baked within the hour.
Both ways result in a delectable soft cookie that melts in the mouth!
In this video, you’ll find a detailed step-by-step vegan Maamoul recipe for the flour method. As well as the recipes for the different fillings you can use (dates or nuts).
Let me know in the comments if you’d like to see the recipe for the Semolina way ????

DOUGH
Ingredients
200g all purpose flour, sifted 1 tsp Mahlab Pinch of crushed Mastic 20g plant butter, room temperature 65g margarine, room temperature60ml vegan condensed milk1/2 tsp rosewater
Instructions
1. Add the flour to a food processor with dough blades (or stand mixer). Add in the Mahlab and crushed mastic. Add the plant butter and margarine in small pieces across the bowl. Pulse a few times, then blend on low for a minute to combine. Stop and remove the lid. Scrape down the sides. Repeat until the dough is crumbly and covered in fat.
2. Add in the vegan condensed milk and rosewater. Blend on low again until combined and smooth. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
3. Remove the blades and empty into a bowl. Gently mix to bring everything together. Cover and rest at room temperature for an hour. Work on the fillings in the meantime.

FILLING
Dates
250g date paste 1/2 tsp margarine 1/2 tsp neutral oil 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1/4 tsp cardamom 1/4 tsp nutmeg
Mix together in a bowl by hand to combine. Scoop out a heaping teaspoon’s worth and roll into a ball. Repeat till finished. The date paste should be soft enough to roll smoothly, yet hard enough to not easily flatten down the date balls.
or
Nuts
150g walnuts (or pistachios), crushed/blended3 tsp sugar 3 tsp simple syrup3 tsp rosewater
Mix together in a bowl by spoon to combine. It should be sticky enough to hold together in a ball, but not too wet where it becomes too soft to stay in shape. Scoop out a heaping teaspoon’s worth and roll into a ball by hand. Repeat till finished.
_____
SHAPING & BAKING
1. Take out a tablespoon’s worth of the dough. Gently squeeze and roll by hand into a ball. Flatten down with your palms.
2. Add a ball of the filling (dates or nuts) to the centre of the circle. Slowly fold the dough over the top of the ball. Fix it up, roll into a smooth ball, and take it to a Maamoul mold. Carefully press down in the centre with your palm.
3. Hit the mold on its sides a couple of twice to detach the cooke from the edges. Flip over your hand - hit again if needed
4. On a sheet-pan / air fryer basket (with baking option), place the cookies slightly apart.
5. Bake in preheated oven / air fryer at 375F for 8 minutes - check on it - and continue for another 2 minutes if needed to add golden colour on top.
6. Once finished, leave in hot pan for 5 to 10 minutes to brown the bottom, and cool down the cookies to the touch. Remove into a serving plate and sprinkle with powder sugar when it’s completely cool. Store in air air-tight containers.

NOTES
1. The plant butter, margarine, and vegan condensed milk should be at room temperature before adding to the flour.
2. Vegan condensed milk: If not available, whisk 40g (1/4 cup) sugar with 60ml (1/4 cup) room temperature vegan whipping cream until thick, smooth, and runny. Some of the mixture will stick to the side of the bowl you whisk it in - you should have at least 60ml. Don’t use more than that.
3. Mastic: It comes in mini gum-like balls. Crush them up using a pestle and mortar with a little sugar. You only need a small amount.
4. Simple syrup: Make ahead so it’s cooled down to room temperature, before using. Two part sugar, one part water. Bring to simmer then turn heat to low. Adding rosewater and lemon juice just before finishing up. Alternatively, whisk sugar with hot water, and cool down completely.
5. Date paste: Use good quality store-bought, or make your own at home by blending soft pitted Medjool dates in a high speed blender/food processor.
6. Walnuts/Pistachios: Blend the nuts in a high speed blender/food processor to chop down into bits.
7. Oven/Air Fryer: Different equipment have different settings and different sizes. Because the cookies are super delicate, they can overcook quickly. Keep an eye out at the 8 minute mark, to see if it still needs another 2 minutes to add a golden colour on top. If it’s baking too quickly, lower the temperature by 25F, adding a minute or two if needed.
