Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 125 grams Plant-based butter substitute
- 60 milliliters Cold water
- 30 grams Sesame seeds
- 30 grams Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 10 grams Extra sesame seeds
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt.
Cut the plant-based butter substitute into small cubes, and add them to the flour mixture.
Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, blend the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the sesame seeds to the mixture and stir to distribute evenly.
Mix the cold water with white vinegar in a small cup.
Pour the water-vinegar mixture over the flour mixture a little at a time, mixing gently with a fork until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it gently into a ball. Flatten the ball into a disc shape.
Wrap the pastry dough in cling film and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (about 400°F).
After chilling, roll out the pastry dough on a floured surface to approximately 1/4 inch thickness.
Sprinkle the top of the rolled-out dough with the additional sesame seeds and gently press them into the dough.
Cut the dough into squares or use a pastry cutter of your choice to create desired shapes.
Place the pastry shapes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry turns golden brown.
Allow the pastries to cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
