About Greek tahini pie

Greek Tahini Pie is a delectable dessert rooted in Greek cuisine, celebrated for its harmonious blend of nutty and sweet flavors. This pie features a silky tahini-based filling made from ground sesame seeds, often combined with sugar or honey for sweetness, a touch of cinnamon, and occasionally orange zest for a bright citrus note. It is typically encased in layers of crispy phyllo dough, creating a delightful contrast in texture. Tahini, the star ingredient, is rich in healthy fats, protein, and essential minerals like calcium and magnesium, making it a nutritious choice. However, the dessert's sugar content and the butter often used in the phyllo layers can contribute to higher calorie levels, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation. Greek Tahini Pie is a celebration of Mediterranean flavors, perfect for those who appreciate a balance of indulgence and health-conscious ingredients.
