Steps

1

For the dough: Place the sugar and mastic in a food processor and blend very well until completely ground.
2

Transfer the mixture to a bowl, add the yeast, warm water, and oil. Stir with a spoon and let sit for about 5 minutes until the yeast activates.
3

Add the flour, orange juice, olive oil, and the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms that doesn't stick to your hands.
4

Let the dough rest and rise for 1 hour.
5

Once risen, roll the dough into a rectangle. Spread the tahini, honey, raisins, and orange zest over the dough, then roll it up. Cut into 15 pieces.
6

If you like, let them rise for another 30 minutes to make them even softer.
7

Bake at 350–375°F (180–190°C) for 35–40 minutes.
8

Enjoy! They turn out perfect and very soft. Once cooled, dust with cinnamon and powdered sugar if desired.
