- 150 g flour
- 50 gr almond flour
- 80 g butter (cold from the fridge)
- 120 gr sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- A pinch of salt
- The zest of 1 lemon
- 2 tbsp oat flakes
- 2 tbsp of almond shavings
- Plum jam
Instructions:
In a bowl mix sugar, eggs, a pinch of salt and the lemon zest. In another bowl, use your hands to mix the flours and the butter (previously diced) until it becomes grainy. Pour the liquid part into the solid part and keep on mixing with your hands. Put the dough on your counter and work it with the palm of your hands. Use some extra flour if the dough is too sticky. Continue kneading until the dough looks smooth and homogeneous. Wrap it in cling film and let it rest for 30 minutes in the fridge. After 30’, roll the dough out with a pizza roller until 2 or 3 mm thick. Rub some butter in 6 small pie molds and sprinkle some flour on top. Cut the dough into 6 parts and lay each of it into a mold. Fill each little pie with the jam. Sprinkle each pie with some almond shavings and oat flakes. Cook the little pies in a preheated oven for 20/25 minutes at 180 °C (no ventilation).
