Orange & rosemary cookies

Ingredients:

• 200 g spelt flour
• 150 g soft butter
• 100 g birch sugar
• 1 egg
• 100 g ground nuts
• 1 untreated organic orange
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• a pinch of salt
• 3-4 small sprigs of rosemary

Preparation:

• First, mix the room-temperature butter with the birch sugar, egg, and a pinch of salt until creamy.
• Wash the orange, grate the zest, then cut the orange in half and squeeze by hand. Add both the juice and the zest to the butter mixture.
• Mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and ground nuts.
• Finely chop the rosemary needles and add half of them to the flour mixture.
• Combine everything with the butter mixture, then chill the finished dough in the refrigerator for one hour.
• Shape the dough into small balls, place them on a baking sheet, and sprinkle with the remaining rosemary. Bake the cookies at 180 °C (350 °F) for 10–12 minutes, until lightly golden brown.
• Remove from the oven, let cool, and enjoy.
