To prepare these extra virgin olive oil cookies, we chose to use our organic de-stoned extra virgin olive oil as the key ingredient. The oil is produced exclusively from olives grown in our own high-density olive groves.
De-stoned and cold-extracted, this olive oil stands out for its characteristic spring-like aromas and is appreciated as a well-balanced extra virgin olive oil, as well as an essential ingredient in a healthy diet.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- In a large bowl, whisk the egg with the sugar. Add the extra virgin olive oil and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg and oil mixture, stirring until a smooth dough is obtained. Add the vanilla and mix again.
- Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out with a rolling pin to a thickness of about 1/2 cm. Use a round pastry cutter to shape the biscuits.
- Place the biscuits on a baking tray lined with baking parchment and bake for approximately 10–12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Transfer the biscuits to a wire rack and allow them to cool completely. Serve and enjoy.
