Makroudh (), also spelled Makrout, is a cookie from the cuisine of the Maghreb. It is filled with dates and nuts or almond paste, that has a diamond shape – the name derives from this characteristic shape.
The dough is made with semolina, which gives the pastry a very specific texture and flavor. Makroudh can be fried in oil or oven-baked.
