Puffy Greek Twists image

The original idea came from a Taste of Home recipe, Crisp Caraway Twists. Thought I would put a different spin on it and make it Greek. These are just addictive, can't eat just one.

These twists are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

These twists are a bit bland. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

Overall, these twists were good, but not great. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The dough was a bit too thick for my liking. I think I'll roll it out thinner next time.

These twists were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.
