Ingredients

  • About 1 cup Rwina flour ( more or less), please see Rwina recipe link above
  • 1/2 cup butter at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup honey (or less)

Garnish (optional)

  • Cinnamon, candies, nuts, etc

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium low heat.

  2. Remove from heat and add honey.

  3. Mix well the butter and honey with a wooden spoon or spatula

  4. Add Rwina flour gradually until you get the right consistency (not too runny and not too dry). Note that if you don’t consume this dish right away, you should make it runny because the Rwina flour will absorb the liquid.

  5. Place in a serving dish.

  6. You can consume it as is or garnish it with whatever you like, such as with nuts, candies, etc.

Recipe Notes

  • It is very important to take your time and mix the Rwina flour with butter and honey. This will prevent the butter to come to the surface of the Zrira.
  • It’s preferable to prepare this dessert last minutes before serving (about half an hour or less) to keep it soft.
  • Zrira may tend to harden, just turn on the oven for few minutes, then turn it off and place the oven safe dish with Zrira in the oven to warm it up.
  • You can also serve Zrira in small dishes and if the Zrira is hardened, just place it in microwave for few seconds.
