Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, 1 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons butter, and lemon zest. Bring to a simmer over low heat. Whisk in semolina, and cook, stirring, until the mixture is thick, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat, and whisk in eggs, one at a time. Return saucepan to heat, and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 to 40 seconds, to cook the eggs. Remove custard from heat, and let cool to room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a small saucepan, melt remaining 2 sticks butter with olive oil; use some of this mixture to brush an 8-inch round nonstick springform baking pan. In a small bowl, combine remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
- Stack phyllo on a work surface, cover with parchment paper, and top with a damp kitchen towel. Working with one sheet of phyllo at a time, place one of the corners into the center of the pan and gently press the dough so that it fits tightly in the pan. Lay the corner of the second sheet of phyllo into the center of the pan, slightly overlapping the first sheet of phyllo. Press the second sheet tightly into the pan. Lay a third sheet of phyllo in the same manner, covering the remainder of the pan (one layer of dough is now completed). Using a pastry brush, brush the phyllo with a generous amount of the butter mixture. Lightly sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Place three more sheets of phyllo into the pan in the same manner, brushing with the butter mixture and sprinkling with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Repeat process again with the remaining 3 sheets of phyllo (you will now have completed three layers). Fill phyllo-lined pan with custard; spread evenly.
- Working with one layer at a time, fold phyllo sheets toward the center of the pan. Brush generously with the butter mixture and sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Repeat folding, buttering, and sprinkling until all layers have been folded toward the center. Do not sprinkle the top layer as the cinnamon-sugar mixture may burn and darken the pastry. Prick all over with a fork, and bake, on a Silpat-lined baking sheet, until golden brown, about 1 hour.
- Combine remaining tablespoon of cinnamon with the confectioners' sugar, and sprinkle over the surface of the phyllo when removed from oven. Let rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
SEMOLINA CUSTARD TART WITH HONEYED PINE NUTS
This dessert tastes best warm, about an hour after it comes out of the oven. It should be made the same day you intend to serve it, but the nuts and syrup may be prepared a day in advance.

Steps:
- Make the honeyed pine nuts: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine nuts and honey in a small bowl. Spread in a single layer on a Silpat-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring every 5 minutes, until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes total. Season with salt. Let cool completely on sheet on a wire rack. Break honeyed nuts into 1/4-inch pieces with your fingers. (Nut pieces can be stored in an airtight container up to 3 days.)
- Make the tart: Whisk eggs in a medium bowl. Bring milk, lemon zest, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon butter to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove lemon zest. Add semolina flour in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly, until mixture is thick, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Pour 1/3 of the semolina mixture into the eggs in a slow, steady stream, whisking slowly and constantly. Pour egg mixture back into saucepan with remaining semolina mixture. Cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl. Let cool, uncovered, until ready to use.
- Stir together cinnamon with remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Melt remaining 2 sticks butter in a small saucepan. Using a pastry brush, coat a 9-inch springform pan with some of the melted butter.
- Place phyllo on work surface, and cover with a damp cloth. Place 1 phyllo sheet in the pan, with 1 corner of the sheet in the center. Press sheet gently against the pan, letting overhang drape over the edge. Repeat with 2 more sheets, overlapping them so the pan is completely covered and overhang extends from all edges. Brush generously with butter and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon sugar. Repeat 2 more times, using 6 more sheets, brushing each layer with butter and sprinkling each layer with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon sugar.
- Pour cooled custard into phyllo-lined pan. Fold 1 sheet of overhang over custard, and brush with butter. Repeat with remaining overhang, working 1 sheet at a time. Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon sugar over the top.
- Brush butter on top of each of the remaining 6 phyllo sheets. Gently crumple each sheet, and arrange it evenly over the cake to cover. Pierce cake all over with a skewer. Place on a baking sheet. Bake until golden brown, about 1 hour. Let cool in pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Carefully remove sides of pan. Let stand until just warm, 45 to 60 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the syrup: Bring honey, water, and lemon zest to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring once or twice, until mixture is runny, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and let stand until just warm. Remove zest when ready to use. (Syrup can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 month; reheat over medium heat until warm.)
- Sprinkle nuts and confectioners' sugar on top of cake. Cut into slices, and divide among serving plates. Serve warm with a drizzle of syrup.

GALAKTABOUREKO-GREEK SEMOLINA CUSTARD BAKED IN PHYLLO
Steps:
- Semolina Custard
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk 5 cups of milk with the sugar and bring almost to a boil. Whisk in the semolina. Bring to a boil, whisking, then cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add the butter, stirring until incorporated. Cool for 5 minutes, then stir in the vanilla, the remaining 1 cup of milk, and the eggs, mixing thoroughly. Cool, cover with plastic or waxed paper, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Syrup
- Place the sugar, cinnamon, water, zest, and juice in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, for about 10 minutes, until the syrup thickens and coats a spoon. Remove the cinnamon stick.
- To Assemble
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Butter an 8-inch square baking pan.
- In a small bowl, mix together the almonds, bread crumbs, and sugar. Line the baking pan with 8 sheets of phyllo, one sheet at a time (each sheet should overlap its neighbors by an inch or so). Brush each sheet with butter and sprinkle lightly with the almond mixture. The pastry edges should overlap the entire perimeter of the pan. Pour in the cooled custard, spreading evenly, and fold the pastry edges over the custard.
- Arrange 8 phyllo sheets over the top of the custard, leaf by leaf, brushing with butter and sprinkling with almond mixture as before. Trim the edges to 1 inch and fold them inward, tucking them down inside the pan. Brush the top with butter and score diagonally with the tip of a sharp knife in two directions, to make diamond-shaped slits in the pastry. Sprinkle the top with water (about 3 tablespoons) and bake for 15 minutes, then lower the heat to 325°F and bake 45 more minutes.
- When the top is golden brown and flaky, remove from the oven and immediately pour the cooled syrup over the pastry. Let the custard set until cool, then cut into pieces and serve.
- Semolina
- Semolina is durum wheat that is more coarsely ground than other flours. It is the primary ingredient in the best pasta and in couscous, and it's also popular as porridge. It gives cakes a heartier, more substantial texture.

From mygreekdish.com
- To make this Galaktoboureko recipe, start by preparing the syrup. Into a small pan add the sugar, the water and lemon peel, cinammon stick and lemon and bring to the boil. Let it boil just until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the pan from the stove, add the honey and stir. Leave the syrup aside to cool completely.
- Pour into a saucepan the milk, the cream and the rest of the sugar, and bring to the boil. (Don’t whisk the mixture. The sugar at the bottom of the pan protects the milk from burning.) As soon as it comes to the boil and heats up slowly add the semolina and the vanilla extract, whilst whisking. Turn the heat down to medium heat and whisk constantly until the mixture becomes creamy. Remove the pan from the stove, add a knob of butter and fold. Let it cool down while you are preparing the remaining steps, until warm (50c / 120F), else your mix will curdle when you fold in the eggs. Just remember to whisk it once in a while.
