Lemon and Cumin Biscuits
Great on their own, with icecream or cheese and can be served warm. These are so easy to make, can be frozen and then cut and baked as required.
Ingredients
300g Caster Sugar
125g Butter
2 egg yolks
Finely grated zest of 2 lemons & 4 tablespoons juice
2 teaspoons freshly ground cumin seeds
300g plain flour
1teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
Preheat oven to 170ºC (gas mark 3)
Cream sugar and butter together until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in the egg yolks, lemon zest, lemon juice and cumin. Sift together flour and bicarb of soda, then fold into the butter mixture to form a soft dough.
Place dough on sheet of greaseproof paper and roll into a cylinder about 5cm in diameter, twisting the ends of the paper together and being careful not to squash or trap the dough. Place dough in freezer for 1½ hours until hard.
Line a baking sheet with a piece of greaseproof paper. Unwrap the dough and cut into 5mm slices. Place these on the baking sheet, leaving a very generous space between them to allow for spreading.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until just firm to the touch. Slice them onto a wire rack and leave to cool.
Enjoy!!
