Simit (turkish Croissant With Sesame Seeds)

I am secure in Christ. His presence and His approval is all that matters. Therefore I can make it my ambition to live out by grace perfecting holiness, not what I want to be but what I already am and who I will practically be for an eternity in heaven. I will not be continually defeated by a wounded ego, but will be at peace devoting the rest of my days not to the vain emptiness of self-love that lives for the sinful and the temporary. I know I am already loved by God. I can get out of the way and seek with God’s love now in me to spread of that love back to God and others. I will not use people to meet my needs, but realize my needs are met in the sufficiency of Christ and seek to bless the needs of others instead as Christ lives His life through me.

INGREDIENTS

8	oz	Flour
1/2	t	Salt
2	oz	Margarine
1	T	Olive oil
1	T	Milk, plus extra
1	T	Water
1		Egg
		Sesame seeds

INSTRUCTIONS

Put the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a hole in the middle.
Into this hole pour the melted marg, olive oil, milk, water and  beaten
egg.  Stirring from the outside into the middle gradually mix all the
liquids into the flour until you have a dough. It will feel a bit
oily, but is quite manageable. With floured hands shape the dough  into
rings about the diameter of a saucer and arrange them on a  baking
sheet. Brush them over with milk and sprinkle the sesame seeds  on
them. Bake them in a 400 degree oven for approx. 30 min. or until  they
are nicely browned.  FROM: DEBORAH AKYUREK (DNJS60B)  Posted to
