🇬🇷 Greece recipe
Loukoumades
Loukoumades are the ancient Greek ancestor of the doughnut, dating back to the first Olympic Games where they were served as a victory treat. These light, cloud-like balls of fried dough are crisp on the outside, impossibly airy inside, and drenched in warm honey with a shower of cinnamon and crushed walnuts.
