- Preparation: 20 min
- Cooking: 20 min
- Makes: 1 serving (53 g)
- Difficulty: Easy
- Diets: Vegetarian
- Contains: alcohol, dairy, egg, gluten, nut
Ingredients
- 18.5 g Flour, all-purpose
- 0.3 g Baking powder
- 11.5 g Sugar, part of it as pearl sugar
- 0.2 g Vanilla extract (or vanilla sugar)
- 15 g Butter, unsalted, cold
- 4 g Eggs, whole, raw
- 3.5 g Almonds, chopped
Method
- Heat the oven to 180°C and line two baking trays with baking paper.
- Mix the flour, baking powder, four-fifths of the sugar and the vanilla, and rub in the cold butter until the mixture looks like crumbs.
- Beat the egg. Work half of it into the crumbs and quickly bring everything together to a smooth dough.
- Roll the dough into balls the size of a walnut, three a serving, and set them well apart on the trays. Flatten them a little with a fork.
- Brush them with the rest of the egg and sprinkle with the chopped almonds and the rest of the sugar, as pearl sugar.
- Bake in the middle of the oven for 10-12 minutes, until pale golden at the edges. Cool on a rack and keep in a tin; they are one of the seven kinds of Norwegian Christmas cookies.
