INGREDIENTS (for about 30 shortbreads):
- 160 g flour
- 30 g of oat flakes
- 120 g of brown sugar
- 125 g butter
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 pinches of salt
- 4 tablespoons sunflower seeds
- 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
- 2 tablespoons sesame
- 4 cl of raw cardamom syrup
Mix in a salad bowl the flour, oat flakes, sugar, salt, sunflower seeds, poppy seeds, sesame seeds and butter cut into pieces.
Work the dough with your fingertips and add the egg. Add 2 cl of cardamom syrup. Form a nice ball of dough.
Turn the oven on to 180°.
Roll out the dough on a floured work surface to a thickness of about one centimeter. Cut out cookies with a cookie cutter. Place them on a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
Using a brush, apply a mixture of egg yolk and cardamom syrup to the shortbread before baking for 12 minutes.
