Υλικά (∼30 almond cookies)
|
Put the softened butter, stevia or sugar, baking soda and semolina or flour in a medium bowl. Mix well with a spoon and add the beaten egg. Stir. |
In the bowl add the almond ground in 2 portions and the vanilla almond extract or almond extract, whatever we choose to use. Mix very well to get… |
… a homogenized tight mixture. Gently wetting our fingertips we take a small amount of mixture, as small as a walnut, we make a ball, with our hands, and we flatten it slightly. |
Place it in the large shallow pan oven or in a silicone mold in a row. In the center we place an almond. With a brush, spread a little melted butter on their surface. |
Bake in the oven with fan assisted oven, at 175℃ 347℉ (Gas Mark:3.9) for 13′-15′. Just brown lightly around the perimeter and below. We do not misunderstand them. Let cool and enjoy. |
