Preparation Time: 20 min
Cooking Time: 45 min
Number of servings: 6 

Ingredients:

2 cups semolina or farina
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
72 blanched almonds
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups yoghurt: alrai yoghurt
1 cup coconut
2 tablespoons tahini 

Preparation:

Grease a 9x13 baking pan with tahini to avoid sticking.

Put all ingredients (except maple syrup) together in a bowl and blend until the batter is smooth.
Spread the batter smoothly and flatly into the pan.

Place almonds to cover the surface. Bake in oven for 250 degrees for one hour. Check after 45 minuter, should be a light golden brown.

Let the Namoura cool for 10 minutes before pouring one cup of maple syrup over the pan.

With a watered knife, cut the namoura with evenly spaced diagonol lines across the long end and then across the short end to create diamond shaped pieces.
Be sure to cut around the almonds if possible so that each piece has one almond in the center. Also, when cutting, use an up and down motion as you would cutting a cake.
