About this recipe

Description

Experience the warmth and hospitality of Lebanon through baking!
Our Lebanese Maamoul Activity Kit brings families together to make delicate Maamoul cookies — buttery shortbread-style treats filled with spiced dates and nuts. They’re as fun to shape as they are delicious to share.

As you bake, explore Lebanese culture with hands-on activities and fun facts designed for curious young bakers:

Tea & Tradition: Learn about Lebanese tea culture, where tea is a sign of friendship and often flavored with mint, rose water, or orange blossom.

Flag Connection: Complete a connect-the-dots activity to uncover the meaning of Lebanon’s famous cedar tree flag.

Language Fun: Practice basic Lebanese Arabic phrases like how to say “hello” and introduce yourself.

More than a baking project, this kit is a flavorful journey into Middle Eastern heritage — blending culinary creativity with cultural discovery, right from your kitchen.
