  • 250 g flour
  • 160 g butter
  • 120 g powdered sugar
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 pinch of vanilla (sugar)
  • 1 lemon(s), untreated, zest

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

Mix flour, butter, powdered sugar, salt, vanilla seeds, and lemon zest to make a shortcrust pastry. Shape the dough into 2-cm-diameter rolls, wrap in foil, and chill for about 1 hour. Preheat oven to 170°C. Whisk an egg white and coat the rolls all over, roll in sugar, and press down. Cut the rolls into 0.5-cm-thick slices and place 2-cm apart on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake for about 15 minutes until light golden, then allow to cool. In the meantime, mix the apricot jam with the lemon juice, heat, stirring constantly, and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Then spread the mixture onto the not-yet-completely-cooled coins and allow to dry.
