Instructions

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients: spelt flour, almond flour and cane icing sugar.

  2. Then add the softened and cubed butter, 2 heaped tablespoons of Vilgain Sweet Nuts butter (Vanilla roll flavour), egg yolk and 5 drops of vanilla extract. If you don't have Vilgain nut butter (which is a shame), then use regular butter instead.

  3. Using your hands to form a dough and leave it to rest in the fridge for an hour or more.

  4. Form small crescents from the dough. If they're breaking when you're shaping them, add more butter to the dough and incorporate it properly. Bake them at 170 °C for 10 minutes or so.

  5. You can coat them in powdered sugar, but they're also great without coating.

  6. And that's it! Enjoy and Merry Christmas!
