PureSpelt Green Tea Sablés
for approx. 70 cookies
Baking paper to line the baking tray
2-3 tbsp green tea including the flowers, according to personal taste
300 g PureSpelt white flour
1 pinch salt
100 g icing sugar
200 g butter, cold and cut into pieces
dribble of cream
A little raw sugar
Sugar stars and pearls for decoration
1
Finely grind the green tea together with 100 g of flour in a food processor or blender. Put the ground green tea together with all the other ingredients in a mixing bowl and using your hands rub in the butter to produce a fine and crumbly mixture. Divide the dough into 3 or 4 pieces and form each into a roll 3 cm in diameter. Spread the raw sugar on a clean working surface and roll the dough on the sugar. Wrap each roll separately in plastic and place in a fridge until the dough is firm.
2
Take the dough rolls out of the fridge and remove the plastic. Cut each roll into 6-8 mm slices and lay them on a tray lined with baking paper, leaving plenty of space between them.
Baking
Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes in the middle of an oven preheated to 180°C until they are light brown. Remove from the oven and let cool on a cooling rack.
Suggestions
The biscuits can be stored in a cool dry place for up to 3-4 weeks. The green tea sables are delicious served with fruit salad, dessert crèmes or simply with a cup of tea or coffee. Use your favourite tea for the preparation of the dough.
