Saragli

Saragli is a traditional Greek sweet, especially popular in Central Macedonia. It is a dessert that features layers of phyllo dough filled with a mixture of almonds or walnuts, honey, and spices, offering a unique and delicious flavor.

To prepare Saragli, phyllo dough is layered multiple times. The filling typically consists of ground almonds or walnuts mixed with sugar, cinnamon, and other spices. After baking, the Saragli is drizzled with a syrup made from sugar and honey, adding sweetness and moisture to the pastry.

Saragli has deep roots in the cuisine of Central Macedonia and reflects the influences of Balkan and Ottoman gastronomy. It is often served during holidays and festive occasions, providing a sweet taste that connects tradition with everyday life.
