2020-11-14
Ingredients
For the pastry
- 250g plain flour (Lamb brand)
- 250g self raising flour (Lamb brand)
- 150g butter
- 200g Sugar (Lamb brand)
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Zest of an orange
For the filling
- 250g pure ground almonds (Lamb brand)
- 250g icing sugar (Lamb brand)
- 2 egg whites
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Few drops almond essence
- Zest of 1 orange and 1 lemon
For the glazing
- 200g icing sugar
- squeeze lemon juice
- 2-3 tbsp boiling water
- 75g toasted flaked almonds
Method
For the pastry, beat the butter and sugar together until light and creamy, then beat in the egg, vanilla and zest. Finally, mix in the flours, wrap in cling film and allow to chill for 30 minutes in a refrigerator. For the almond filling, mix all the ingredients together into a stiff smooth filling. To form the bones, roll out the sweet pastry onto a lightly floured surface, brush with water, roll the almond filling into a sausage shape the same length and cover completely with the pastry, like a sausage roll. Roll out into 6 cm thickness, cut into 3 cm wide slices. Take each slice and roll again until double in size. Flatten out with the palm of your hands and pinch sides to obtain a bone shaped cookie. Place on a baking tray and bake at 175c for 20-25 minutes until golden. Meanwhile, mix together the ingredients for the glazing, using enough hot water to obtain the correct consistency and use to coat the bones. Immediately sprinkle over toasted flaked almonds and allow to set.
