Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 30 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Milk (optional, for brushing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, ground coriander, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using your fingertips or a pastry blender, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and add it to the flour-butter mixture. Mix gently until the dough just comes together. If the dough seems too dry, add a teaspoon of milk at a time until it forms a cohesive ball.
Lightly flour a clean work surface and roll out the dough to about 0.5 cm (1/4 inch) thick.
Using a biscuit cutter or the rim of a glass, cut out shapes and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each biscuit.
Optional: Brush the tops of the biscuits lightly with milk for a golden brown finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are lightly golden around the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the coriander biscuits as a savory snack or enjoy them with your favorite hot beverage. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
