1 cup of sesame seeds
1/4 cup EVOO

2. Preheat oven to 350F.
3. Mix watermelon with sugar, honey, flour and cinnamon–it should have the consistency of a thick batter.
4. spread olive oil on the 9×13 pan (you can use parchment paper on the pan if you’d like) and top with half of the sesame seeds–and then spread the batter over it & top with the rest of the sesame seeds and a bit of cinnamon.
