- Preparation: 40 min
- Cooking: 18 min
- Makes: 1 serving (78.7 g)
- Difficulty: Medium
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: dairy, egg, gluten, honey
Ingredients
- 35 g Flour, all-purpose
- 10 g Butter, unsalted
- 8 g Eggs, whole, raw
- 8 g Sugar
- 0.5 g Baking powder
- 0.2 g Salt
- 10 g Poppy seeds
- 6 g Honey
- 1 g Lemon zest
Method
- Makes 1 portion (2-3 cookies); multiply the ingredients by 8 for a full batch of about 20. Cream the butter and sugar, then beat in the egg.
- Mix in the flour, baking powder and salt to form a soft dough; wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, warm the poppy seeds with the honey and lemon zest in a small pan for 2-3 minutes to make a thick, spreadable filling, then let it cool.
- Roll the dough out and cut into circles about 8 cm across; spoon a little poppy seed filling into the center of each.
- Pinch the edges up into three points to form a triangle, pressing firmly at the corners so it holds its shape while baking.
- Bake at 180 °C (350 °F) for 15-18 minutes until the edges are lightly golden; cool on a rack before serving.
