My husband is Greek, because it is only 2 of us we used to buy them, here in Greece they sell them everywhere.. but this year i will be brave enough to try to make them.. i always listen to his stories how many of his cookies his mother and aunts make.. ENORMOUS amounts because they are very very big family.. :) recipe seems perfect!
I am so happy to see honey used inside the cookie dough..must cooks will not..this is the very best cookie recipe ever just like in Greece..wow you did it again!!!!
I stumbled on this while browsing through to see if anyone else made them like my Yiayia. To my surprise I felt like I was in your kitchen and back with Yiayia making these. You are great on camera. Loved this video. I am saving it. You said what I tell my family every time they want me to make something . I baptize you as I am making and then bless before serving. I just finished making my Baklava and had leftover syrup so I thought I would make some Melomakarona. Olympia Zopolos
Hello and Merry Christmas! I made these cookies last year, I didnt have a problem. But I'm not sure if I did something wrong. I used the printed recipe because I watched your video several times. But I was a little confused with the baking powder and baking soda because it was different in the directions than the video. Thats not a problem. The problem is my dough is very oily. I have celiac disease, but I make these for my Greek husband and family, so I used regular flour. I really can't taste them because of the gluten. Is the oily dough ok? I made a test batch, but like I said, I can't taste them. Thanks so much for your recipes!! They help out this Italian wife make make her Greek husband some memories.
Hi Ken, omg my mouth is watering looks so good and thank you for sharing step by step!! I do have a question to ask you since I live in the states.. lol how much grams equal to cups?? For instance 600 grams of sugar is equivalent to how many cups?? Also our measuring spoons start at.. 1/8, 1/4, 1/2... how much.is 1/3 tsp.?? Also I made your Pastitsio on Saturday. It was marvelous, easy to make little time-consuming as you said but well worth it!! Bravo
Thank you so much!!!! The easiest way is to just google baking weight to volume conversions. As for the measuring spoon thing.... just estimate based on tsp volume. Good luck:-)))) Cheers, Ken🇨🇦
Ken Panagopoulos oh by the way I used to watch Akis kitchen but not anymore since I found you 👍 Your channel is easier to figure out recipes Greek American here Merry Christmas 🎄
Thank you for your kind words:-)) Glad you enjoy my channel and if you have any requests, just let me know and I’ll be more than happy to make them for you.... Thanks again!!!! Cheers, Ken🇨🇦
Ken if you get a chance find the you tube - Camila Cabello- Havana Christmas Version- ( Melomakarona Greek Parody) it will make you laugh ! Olympia Zopolos
Hey, Ken! Can we please have measurements completely in grams and mls. Teaspoons, tablespoons, ounces, and cups are not the same the world around. (With this recipe you have some liquid in ounces, some in grams, and some in ml. What's up with that?) Thanks for the clarification!
Efharesto Ken, Nice recipe but I also wish to add that everyone who makes this recipe make sure your fruit is organic so it will not have a waxy skin. Wax on fruit skin tastes awful!!!

Only just found this recipe so can i use peanut oil in place of veg oil?
This looks great! Is there a substitute for semolina flour that you'd recommend? I am not allowed to eat it due to dietary restrictions. Thank you!

Excellent instructions! I use all olive oil. Do you think that is OK? Also, do you put in cupcake liners?
Thanks Jaimie!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Olive oil is always ok to use LOL I do put my Melomakarona and kourabiedes in liners. I didn’t in this case for the pic....
Where do I find the written recipe for this cookie from you?
Like everything else in my life, I’m working on it....

Before you take all those calories you need to loose a few calories by using some "Human Energy"
