Cinnamon little wheels
Sunday it’s the familiy day: usually my uncles come to visit, but today was a special day… the cousins were coming too!In the living room, with the fireplace, we were more or less twenty.I love thise afteroon because I can spend all the morning cooking in the kitchen: we have guests, eh!
I decided to use some leftover pastry to make cinnamon and apricot jam biscuits to serve with a cup of tea: it should be a real English afternoon.
Ingredients for the pastry:
flour, 300gr
butter, 150gr
egg, 1
caster sugar, 150gr
vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon
baking powder, 1 teaspoon
orange powder, 1 tablespoon
grounded cinnamon
apricot jam, 100gr
Put the flour into a bowl with the sugar, the butter, slightly softened, the vanilla extract, the baking powder and the orange powder and mix with your fingers to incorporate all the ingredients.
In a little bowl, wisk the egg and add it to the dough until the mix comes together and you can shape it with your hands, then wrap it with some clingfilm and leave it to rest for one hour in the refrigerator.

After an hour, roll out the pastry to form rectangles of a thickness of about 5mm, large 10cm x 20cm.
Sprinkle the rectangles with cinnamon and spread the jam over them.
Wrap the rectangles over themselves and cut them in little wheels of a thickness of about 1cm.

Put the biscuits on a greased baking tray and sprinkle with some caster sugar.
Bake in a preheated oven (180°C) until they are lightly golden.
Remove them from the oven and cool them, serving the biscuits with a cup of tea.
