I made these biscuits
last week with my son. Something for us to do on a very, very rainy
day... He loves using the rolling pin and making shapes. He made a
big snowman and a big robin but both broke when I lifted them out of
the baking tray :(
These biscuits are
really light and lemony, delicious with a cup of coffee.
This recipe comes from
a book called Sweet Food that I have borrowed from a friend of mine.
Most of the recipes are off limits for people on a Low FODMAP diet
but some can be adapted, like this one. I don't see polenta listed as
an ingredient for biscuits very often and I have found already two
recipes with it in this book. I had to share this one..
Ingredients:
- 125g softened butter
- 125g caster sugar
- 2 egg yolks
- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 155g gluten free flour
- 110g polenta
Method:
Preheat the oven to
160°C. Beat the butter
and the sugar until creamy. Add the yolks, zest and flours and knead
until you get a soft ball. Roll out the dough on a floured surface
with a rolling pin. Cut into shapes and lift onto a greased baking
tray. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes or until lightly golden.
