Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to make some simple healthy cookies like these. Affection is transmitted with the hands. Roll up your sleeves, put your hands in the dough and I assure you that you will receive very sweet kisses.
INTEGRAL CRANBERRY AND WALNUTS BISCUITS
- 75 g flour (sifted)
- 75 g wholemeal flour
- 75 g butter at room temperature
- 75 g white brown sugar
- 4 g chemical yeast
- 20 g oat milk
- 1 egg
- lemon zest
- 40 g chopped cranberries
- 20 g chopped walnuts
- beaten egg to paint
- sugar and beetroot powder to decorate (optional)
Make a volcano with the dry elements: flour and yeast. Make a hole in the center and put the wet elements: butter, sugar, milk, egg and zest. First mix the wet ones with each other and then with the flour mixture. Add the cranberries and walnuts. Make a homogeneous mixture without kneading. If it is done by hand, it must be done very quickly so as not to transmit the heat from these to the dough with so much butter. It is always better on a machine for this reason.
Put the dough on kitchen paper and wrap it to be able to stretch it up to 1 cm in order to let it rest in the fridge for 1 hour to cool. Once this time has elapsed, stretch the dough with a little flour and cut with a pasta cutter. Put on a baking tray and brush with beaten egg mixed with a little water to make a thinner layer. Decorate and bake about 18 min at 180ºC. Let cool and store in a hermetically closed jar.
Happy Valentines Day!
