Rolled and Filled Lactose-Free Cookies are soft and delicious sweets perfect for those who suffer from lactose intolerance.
They are simple and quick to prepare, and you can experiment with mixed fillings to cater to everyone’s tastes.
These rolled and filled shortcrust cookies are truly good, delicious, and perfect for both breakfast and snacks for both adults and children.
To make this recipe, you must use suitable products; I used lactose-free butter and for the filling, various flavors of jam and preserves.
The rolled cookies are the classic cookies our grandmothers used to make; they can also be prepared with regular butter or with oil, either fruity olive oil or seed oil, your choice, just be careful with the consistency as it varies a bit.

Ingredients for the Lactose-Free Cookies
- 3/4 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 1/4 cups Remilled durum wheat semolina
- 3/4 cup Sugar
- 2 Eggs (medium)
- 9 tbsps Lactose-free butter
- Half teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- Half Lemon zest (grated)
- to taste Jam (mixed)
- to taste Orange marmalade
- to taste Powdered sugar
Tools
- 1 Bowl
- 1 Rolling Pin
- 1 Baking Sheet
- Oven
Preparation for the Cookies
In a bowl, work the soft butter with the sugar, then add the eggs and the grated lemon zest, working it all until a cream forms.
Add the salt dissolved in a teaspoon of water and then gradually the sifted flour together with the baking powder, work quickly until the liquids are well absorbed. Pour the dough onto a work surface and work it further until it forms a good smooth but dry dough.
Let the dough rest wrapped in plastic wrap in the fridge for a few minutes, about 10 minutes.
Roll out the dough on a sheet of parchment paper forming a rectangle, cut multiple rectangles about 4 x 9 inches in length.The larger the rectangle, the bigger the cookies will be; fill each rectangle in the center with mixed jams (strawberries, cherries, blueberries, peaches), marmalade, or lactose-free cream.
After placing a good central dose, close the edges and cover the filling to form a roll. Make about 3-4 rolls and transfer them with all the parchment paper onto a baking sheet.
COOKING
Bake the filled cookie rolls in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 15 minutes with fan and 20 minutes in a static oven.
Adjust according to your oven’s power; they should be just golden.Remove the slightly golden rolls from the oven, let them cool a bit, then cut them to your preferred thickness, place them on a tray, and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
