Homemade pistachio biscuits - recipe with step-by-step photos

While in Brussels, we ate some pistachio biscuits and we liked them so much, that we decided to give it a try. The result was some flavored homemade biscuits.

 Ingredients for 15-17 biscuits:

• 200 grams of wheat flour
• 100 grams of butter at room temperature
• 90 grams of ground pistachio
• 50 grams sugar
• 1 egg
• a bit of salt

First ground the pistachio.

After you´ve done that, mix 70 grams of pistachio with half of the sugar, the salt and the egg and blend everything for a minute.

Beat the butter at room temperature with the other half of sugar until fluffy.
Add the pistachio composition and mix well.

Add the flour gradually and mix until you obtain a non sticky dough.

Roll the dough in plastic film and put it in the freezer for 10 minutes.

Preheat the oven at 180 Celsius degrees.

On a sheet of parching paper spread the remaining grounded pistachio and put the rolled dough above. Roll it over the pistachio until you have nice pistachio edges.

Cut the dough in 2 cm pieces. Put the biscuits in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until done.

Enjoy!
