For... Oops! I forgot to count them! :-0
100 g Fioretto yellow cornflour
150 g T 45 wheat flour
75 g sugar
75 g olive oil
1 egg (50 g)
1/2
large Sicilian orange (or 1 medium-sized orange)
In a container, mix the 2 flours. Make a well
in the center. Pour in the sugar.
Remove the zest from the orange. Squeeze the
juice to obtain 45 ml.
In a small container, put the olive oil, egg,
juice, and orange zest. Mix with a hand-diving mixer, "a giraffe,"
until you get some kind of "mayonnaise. You can also use a mini-robot
mixer for this step.
Pour this mixture into the well. Mix to
incorporate the sugar first and then the flours until you have a homogeneous
dough. Do not overwork the dough. Form a ball, flatten, film and store in the
refrigerator for 1/2 hour.
Preheat the oven to 170oC.
Spread the dough to a thickness of 1/2
cm. Cut into 4 x 4 cm squares.
Arrange cookies on a baking sheet covered with
baking paper.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes. The edges should be
lightly browned. Adapt baking time to cookie size.
Allow cooling on a wire rack.
