Turmeric Hemp Seed Shortbreads


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2018 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




Delicate, buttery, rich shortbread cookies made with spelt and hulled hemp seeds and infused with variety of warm spices. They are a great afternoon snack and particularly good when paired with a pot of freshly brewed tea. The cooled shortbread cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 1 month.

  • 150 g Unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 tbsp Raw sugar
  • 120 g Refined spelt flour
  • 1 tsp Sea salt
  • 1 tsp Turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/3 tsp Chilli flakes
  • 40 g Hulled hemp seeds
  1. In a medium bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  2. Sift the flour with the salt, spices and hulled hemp seeds. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter and beat until blended. Scrape the shortbread dough out onto a large sheet of plastic wrap or parchment paper and pat it into a log, about 1-inch in diameter. Wrap it up and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour or up to 2 days.
  3. Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Slice the dough 5mm thick and arrange, at least 2cm apart, on two parchment-lined baking sheets.
  4. Bake in batches on middle rack until set but not brown, about 12 minutes. Slide the parchment onto a wire rack and let the shortbreads cool.

Interesting recipe, rarely make shortbreads. Dont know why I rarely make cookies now adays. By the way scotch bonnet peppers are the second most hottest chilli next to harbanero. Its a well loved chilli and used very often in savory dishes and curries here in Maldives.

We love a little bite with our afternoon tea and these do look perfect for that. Not too sweet, but a little spice to wake up the senses. Great little cookies Angie.

Vicki Bensinger 22/5/18 20:59

I love shortbread! This is a much healthier version even if it still uses butter. I can always count on you to come up with healthy recipes for those otherwise not so healthy ones many of us still indulge in.

Nava K 24/5/18 08:38

Turmeric into shortbread is such a pleasure for tasting and for admiring. Love how this ingredient has made a difference. Which I usually add into curries and stir fries, and not into shortbread.

Choclette 27/6/18 18:27

These are another very clever idea. My trouble is I'd be too greedy to be able to store them for a whole week. I had a whole heap of turmeric in my smoothie this morning, so at least I'm getting something healthy ;)
