Umm Ali
Umm Ali is a classic Egyptian dessert made from layers of flaky pastry soaked in sweetened milk and enriched with a mixture of nuts, raisins, and coconut. Baked until golden and bubbling, it has a creamy, comforting texture with a crisp top and warm, spiced aroma. Often likened to bread pudding, Umm Ali is served warm and is a beloved treat during festive occasions and family gatherings across the Middle East.
