Directions
- Use your food processor to grind the poppy seeds for the filling.
Combine 5 cups flour, salt and baking powder; mix well.
Make a well in the center and add shortening, 4 eggs and honey.
Work together until dough is formed, adding flour as needed.
Roll out thinly and cut into 4-inch circles. For filling, grind poppy seeds.
Combine with milk and honey. Cook over low heat until thickened.
Add lemon peel and raisins; cool.
Place 1 tablespoon filling on each dough circle; fold up three sides and press together into triangles leaving tops somewhat open.
Beat remaining egg and brush over dough.
Bake at 350℉ (180℃) 20 minutes or until browned.
