Mandazi

 

  Mandazi is great with tea! I personally love it i make it everyday. 

 There are many ways to make it but I like using the following ingredients   

-Eggs

-All purpose flour

-Milk

-Sugar

-Ghee butter

and Yeast to activate it. 

Fried Dumplings

My favorite I eat it almost every day very yummy ! Not healthy though because it's made with flour and sugar . After frying it we add liquefied sugar on top.

Honeycomb

Its called honeycomb because it looks like a bee hive ,but its bot really made with honey. Making it takes about 15 minutes plus the 20 minutes it's in the oven. People usually use cream cheese for the inside but you can use jelly too.
