Lady’s Fingers Recipe

Preparation and Assembly

1. 1

   Prepare the Filling

   In a bowl, mix the finely chopped pistachios, sugar, and ground cinnamon until well combined.

2. 2

   Prepare the Phyllo Dough

   Unroll the phyllo dough and cover it with a damp cloth to prevent drying out.

3. 3

   Assemble the Lady’s Fingers

   Take one sheet of phyllo dough, brush it lightly with melted butter, and place another sheet on top. Repeat this process until you have 3-4 layers. Cut the dough into strips about 3 inches wide.

4. 4

   Fill and Roll

   Place a small spoonful of the pistachio filling at one end of the strip, then roll it tightly into a finger shape. Place the rolled pastry seam-side down on a baking sheet.

5. 5

   Bake

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the lady’s fingers until golden brown, approximately 20-25 minutes.

6. 6

   Prepare the Honey Syrup

   In a small saucepan, combine honey and water. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

7. 7

   Glaze the Pastries

   Once out of the oven, immediately brush the lady’s fingers with the honey syrup while they are still warm.
