Ingredients

Select all ingredients

Plain wheat flour 150 g Weizenmehl glatt

Butter 125 g Butter ungesalzen

Cane sugar 80 g Rohrzucker

Orange marmalade 50 g kandierte Orangenschalen (Orangeat)

Gnocchi 40 g Polenta (Maisgrieß) Instant

Fine salt 1 Prise Salz fein jodiert

Preparation method

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 180 °C (fan-assisted).

Finely chop the candied orange peel. In a bowl, mix the plain flour with polenta, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Add the soft butter and knead everything into a smooth dough. Finally, fold in the chopped candied orange peel.

Take small portions of dough with a teaspoon and form them into balls. Place the balls with enough space between them on the baking sheets, as they will spread significantly during baking. Lightly flatten the balls.
