Today is Regaip Kandil and I’d like to bake Kandil Simits and share them with you. I wish an auspicious Kandil for you all.
2 sticks butter/margarine (250 gr), melted
½ cup canola oil
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup vinegar
1 egg yolk
1 tbsp mahaleb
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
4 cups flour
1 egg white
1 cup sesame seeds
Place the main ingredients but the flour and baking powder in a large bowl. Mix them all and then add flour and baking powder slowly. Knead until the dough becomes soft.
Preheat the oven to 350 F (180 C). Grab pecan size dough pieces and make 2-2 ½ inch (5-6 cm) long pencil like pieces and stick the ends to form a ring. And then, in a bowl whisk the egg white and place sesame seeds in a flat plate. First dip all the rings in the egg white and then dip into the sesame seeds.
Arrange them over a baking paper or greased oven tray. Bake until they all turn a light brown color (for about 20-25 minutes). Make sure not to leave them in the oven once they are baked. Otherwise they would become drier.
Kandil Sesame Rings are good to go with tea or coffee at brunches.
ENJOY
P.S: This recipe makes 40-45 Kandil sesame rings.

Iffet
I made these but they didn't come out good. I wonder if the vinegar shouldn't be in it or 1/4 cup is alot. And the dough wasn't soft. Can you please tell me how it's made because i really want to make these. Thanks
I'm not sure why they did not come out good, but I don't think it's because of the vinegar. Vinegar makes them melt in the mouth. But you can try to reduce the amount to see the result.
The dough should be soft, so maybe you can reduce the amount of flour. I hope this would help.
Love,
Hayriye
