Pasteli: Greek Honey Sesame Bars

Ingredients:

• 7 ounces sesame seeds
• 7 ounces honey
• Zest of 1 lemon

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees and toast seeds, look for a little color but not to brown (2-3 minutes)
2. Put honey into saucepan and heat until honey start to boil (4-5 minutes) (this where you would boil for a little longer for a crunchier texture)
3. Take off the heat and add sesame seeds and lemon zest
4. Quickly spread onto parchment lined surface and flatten
5. After cooled, cook into bars or squares before it becomes completely hard.

This can be made either into a chewy bar or a crunchy bar depending on your preference and cook time. Enjoy!
