How to Bake Paximadia 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Add everything but the flour to the bowl and mix. Slowly add the flour to the mixture until the dough has a soft, but not sticky, consistency. You may not use all the flour or use a bit more

Make long rounded rolls of dough and press them on to a pan to flatten the top and sides. Score them every few inches (depending on how big you want the paximadia to come out.)

Bake at 350 degrees until they are slightly browned, approximately 20 minutes. Take the pan out of the oven and lower the oven to 250 degrees.

Remove the paximadia strips from the pan and cut them where they were scored. Place the cookies back on the baking sheet on their sides (so all sides of the paximadia can properly be cooked
