Delicious almond biscuits pair perfectly with jasmine tea.
Ingredients:
  • Melted butter, to grease
  • 125g unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 100g (1/2 cup) caster sugar
  • 2 tsp finely grated orange rind
  • 1/2 tsp almond essence
  • 225g (1 1/2 cups) plain flour
  • 2.00 gm baking powder
  • 30 blanched almonds
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 180°C and prep baking tray by brushing with butter and lining with non-stick baking paper.
  • In a large bowl, use an electric beater to whip together butter, sugar, orange rind, and almond essence until light and creamy. Incorporate the egg and beat until just combined.
  • Add the flour and baking powder through a sifter then mix with a large metal spoon until fully combined.
  • Take 2 teaspoonfuls of the mixture and shape it into a ball, then gently flatten it on the prepared tray. Press an almond into the center. Repeat this process with the rest of the mixture and almonds to make a total of 30 biscuits. Bake them for 15-20 minutes until they turn golden. Let them cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
