Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams Honey
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 400 grams All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 100 grams Powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons Water (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a saucepan over low heat, melt the honey and unsalted butter together, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and eggs until light and fluffy.
Slowly pour the cooled honey-butter mixture into the egg mixture, whisking continuously to combine.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding them together with a spatula. Add the milk to form a soft, slightly sticky dough. Do not overmix.
Lightly flour your hands, then take small portions of the dough and roll into balls (about the size of a golf ball). Arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each ball for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden and firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and water in a small bowl until smooth.
Once the biscuits are cool, dip the tops into the glaze or drizzle the glaze over them with a spoon. Allow the glaze to set completely before serving.
Enjoy your homemade Prianiki Honey Biscuits with a cup of tea or coffee!
