Refreshing Lemon Biscuits
1.
Soften the butter at room temperature, add sugar and salt, mix well, pour 30 ml of lemon juice and mix well.
2.
Cut the lemon peel into small pieces, remove the white fascia from the skin, and cut it again to add points to the taste.
3.
Sift in low-gluten flour and lemon zest, and stir gently with a spatula.
4.
Because the amount of butter is small, depending on the condition of the dough, add a little water to knead into a cylindrical dough with a diameter of about 4-5 cm. If it is not easy to handle, you can wrap it in plastic wrap and knead it. No need to over-knead.
5.
Wrap it with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator for 1.5 hours. After the dough is frozen, take it out and cut it into 5 mm round pieces with a knife. The dough is placed perpendicular to yourself, and the angle of the knife parallel to yourself can better control the thickness and parallelism!
6.
Place the cut round slices in a baking pan lined with greased paper. This weight can fit about two pans.
7.
Preheat the oven to 355° F (180°C), and bake the middle layer for about 20-25 minutes. Depending on the structure of the oven, the amount of sugar, the number and thickness of the biscuits, the baking time varies, and the upper layer of the biscuits is slightly yellowed and colored. In addition, if your sugar content is small, the baking time will be longer.
8.
You can enjoy the crispy texture by cooling before eating. The lemon zest in the biscuits is refreshing and delicious, and the sweet and sour taste gives the nervous mood a vacation. Spring is coming!
Tips:
If you like the sour taste, you can add more lemon juice, if you don't like it, you can add a little less, depending on your personal preference. The butter does not need to be beaten, it only needs to be softened at room temperature and the ingredients are evenly stirred. When the dough is finally kneaded, you can press it with your hands. If there is dry powder, you can drip water until the dough is even and soft. Unfinished biscuits can be sealed at room temperature or kept frozen!
