Ghorayebah, also known as “sand cookies” due to their crumbly texture, are a staple in Middle Eastern and North African cuisine. Biscomisr’s version is crafted using simple ingredients—wheat flour, butter oil, sucrose, egg whites, vanilla, and ammonium bicarbonate—resulting in a cookie that’s both tender and flavourful. Typically adorned with a single clove or a sliver of almond or pine nut, these cookies are perfect for sharing during celebrations or as an everyday treat.

Instructions:
These cookies are ready to enjoy straight from the package. Pair them with a cup of tea or coffee for a delightful snack.

Information:
Ghorayebah has been a part of Egyptian culture for centuries, often prepared to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan. The tradition of making ghorayebah dates back to ancient times, symbolising joy and festivity. While variations exist across the Middle East and North Africa, the Egyptian version is particularly renowned for its simplicity and rich buttery taste.
