Mamouniyeh, is the most famous and delicious dish for breakfast in Aleppo, Syria. It is served with Jebneh Bida Baladiyeh (Local Syrian White Cheese), or served with Sha’eebiyyat, or served alone without anything. If you visit Aleppo , you will have Mamouniyeh for breakfast in any hotel or restaurant.

Sha’eebiyyat is the first Syrian dessert on my blog.

The dough is A’jineh Mwarraqah, and to stuff the dough you have two choices:

1. Qashta: In Syria, no need to make the filling “Qashta” at home because it is available in the markets, but in this post you will find the way of making “Qashta”, it is not like the purchased one, but it helps and tastes close.

2. Walnuts filling: this consists of coarsely chopped walnuts, sugar and some water, a sticky filling.

Or if you want you can make the dessert without the filling (actually this is not done traditionally, but it is delicious.), here you need to shape the dough and bake it only.

And you need with this dessert sugar syrup, which is easy and simple to make.

In Syria, Sha’eebiyyat is available in desserts shops.
