Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Light corn syrup
- 40 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Milk
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and corn syrup. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the flour, milk, and a pinch of salt until fully combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
Using a teaspoon, spoon small dollops of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 2 inches of space between each as the cookies will spread considerably during baking.
Bake one sheet at a time in the preheated oven for 6-7 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the centers are set.
Remove from the oven and allow the tuiles to cool for 1 minute on the baking sheet. If desired, while still warm, shape the cookies by draping them over a rolling pin or a clean glass to create a curve. Allow them to cool completely in their shaped form.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, ensuring the baking sheet cools between batches.
Once cooled, store the tuiles in an airtight container to maintain their crisp texture. Serve as is or pair with ice cream or mousse for an elegant dessert.
