i dont even remember where and when i found this recipe.. i was just looking for something weird and i bumped into lembas. i'm all about elves so i tried it at once.. no idea if lotr elves actually used to eat anything like this.. but i have to say it's a delicious cookie :D for sure it's a pretty good mixture.. i tend to keep mine a bit salty, not too sweet, because i like the taste better. today i was in the mood for cookies but not the usual kind, so lembas is what i made!
lembas
the elven bread
110g butter, softened
40g sugar
1tbsp honey
2egg yolks
1pinch salt
250g flour
fresh orange zest, grated
2tbsp ground hazelnut
baking powder qs
beat butter with sugar and honey until fluffy, stir in egg yolks and the rest of ingredients. mix well, when the knead makes crumbs make a ball and let cool in the fridge for about 30min. flatten the dough (about 3mm thick) and cut it in rectangles, place them on a baking tin. bake in preheated oven at 200°C for 10min.
