I already shared my Vegan orange pie, this is the original version with the yoghurt and eggs.
They are both very flavourful and aromatic, try the one you like better (or both, and decide!)
I like it with less sugar, but if you want it sweeter you can increase the amount of sugar and put 1 cup in the mix and 500 g in the syrup.
This recipe is for @nongcatwhatsnew and I hope you enjoy!

Steps

90 min

1

Take the phyllo sheets and make a roll with them. Cut small slices, so that you end up with thin long strips of phyllo. Separate them and let them to dry a bit. You can also put them in the oven for 10 min so that they dry out quicker.
2

In the meantime prepare the syrup. Put all ingredients in a saucepan and boil for 5 minutes. Take it off the heat and leave aside to cool
3

Separate the eggs and beat the whites into a meringue.

Whisk egg white mergingue quicker
4

Beat yolks and sugar well and add the yogurt, zest, oil, vanilla, baking powder and mix well to incorporate into the mixture.
Add the phyllo pastry and mix with a spoon, making sure that you don't get lumps and each strip is separated from the others.
5

Finally, with a wooden spoon, add the meringue and mix very gently.
6

Grease a pan and pour the mixture and bake in the air for about 1 hour at 170 degrees. (Do the knife trick to see if it's ready).
7

As soon as the dessert comes out of the oven, pour the cold syrup over it immediately. Cold syrup - warm dessert.
Let it cool and put it in the fridge.

Tips

Whisk egg white mergingue quicker

When mixing egg whites to make meringue do it in a metal bowl. The cold bowl will speed up the process and give your stuff meringue quicker.

Greece

I live in Greece but I love to try and experiment with food from all over the world! I have 2 children that are grown up now and off to the University, but I consider it my great success that they both love to try new things, they can cook and actually love to do it! It is my firm belief that everyone can cook and the only thing to do is get in the kitchen and try it!
