ORANGE AND CARDAMOM COOKIES INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 orange zest
- 4 tbsp orange juice
- Half packet baking powder
- 1.5 g cardamom (powder)
- 1 pinch salt
Tools
- 1 Bowl
ORANGE AND CARDAMOM COOKIES PREPARATION
In a bowl, beat the egg with the sugar, salt, oil, and orange juice with a hand whisk.
Mix the flour with the baking powder and the cardamom powder, then add it to the rest.
Knead briefly until you get a homogeneous mixture and transfer it to the work surface. Form a rectangle about two inches wide and half an inch thick or a little more.
Place it on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and then in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 20 minutes. Remove the roll from the oven, let it cool for five minutes.
While still warm, cut it into slices one inch thick.
Re-bake the slices for 10-12 minutes, turning them halfway through, so they become crispy.Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool very well on a rack.
