Msemen-Moroccan-Square-Flatbread-8-of-8.jpg



Msemmen (Arabic: مسمن msamman, musamman) or rghaif (رغايف), is a traditional flatbread originally from the Maghreb, commonly found in Algeria,[1] Morocco,[2] and Tunisia.[3] It is folded into square pancakes with multiple internal layers and cooked on a griddle, [4][5] usually served with honey or a cup of aromatic morning mint tea or coffee. M'semmen can also be stuffed with meat (khlea) or onion and tomatoes. The small msemmen pancakes are of Berber origin.

Lekach is a honey-sweetened cake made by Jews,[1] especially for the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah.[2] Known in Hebrew as ugat dvash (עוּגַת דְּבַשׁ‎, lit. 'honey cake'), it is mainly eaten in Israel by Israeli Jews and Jewish people all over the world who know it by its Yiddish name, lekach (לעקעך‎), phono-semantically matched in Hebrew as [ugat] lekakh ([עוּגַת] לֶקַח‎, lit. 'lesson cake') influenced by the Biblical association of teaching with honey. It is traditionally eaten at Rosh Hashanah in hopes of ensuring a sweet New Year.[3] It is also customary to ask for and receive a honey cake on Erev Yom Kippur.

Lebanese Milk Kaak

from a food blog:
Lebanese Milk Kaak/ Kaak Bhaleeb is a favored sweet ring bread that is plushy and pillowy, where every bite collapses softly in your mouth; it has a golden hue, and an agreeable mahlab flavor — might be the rolls of your dreams.
