Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Lay down 7 sheets of phyllo dough, brushing each with melted unsalted butter.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together semolina flour, eggs, granulated sugar, whole milk, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
  3. Pour the semolina filling over the phyllo base, spreading it evenly. Top with another layer of phyllo dough brushed with butter and score the top layer lightly.
  4. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the top is golden brown and the filling is set.
  5. Remove from the oven and drizzle warm honey over the top. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and let cool slightly before serving.
