Preparation: Step 1
-
Prepare all ingredients for simple lean cookies.
You can replace a small part of the flour with whole -grain wheat. Replaced 2 tbsp. l. I haven't tried it anymore.
-
Step 2
From the orange, it is thinly removed to the zest and squeeze the juice.
Juice needs 80 grams. If suddenly there is not enough, add to the desired amount of ordinary water.
I got 120 grams, so I also drank it 🙂
Necessarily! Before you remove the zest, thoroughly scald the orange with boiling water. We all know that they are covered with chemistry to prevent mold, etc., etc. Everything must be washed off.

Step 3
Sift wheat flour with starch and baking powder. Add sugar.
-
Step 4
Pour oil into the flour mixture, add a pinch of salt, juice and zest of orange.
-
Step 5
Mix everything. You can, with your hands, you can with a mixer. I mix for 10 seconds with a mixer, to a large crumb.
-
Step 6
Collect the dough in the ball.
It turns out to be rather soft and pleasant, similar to plasticine, not sticking to the hands.
The flour is different everywhere. You may need a little more liquid or, conversely, flour.

Step 7
Now we will form our simple lean cookies.
To do this, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 0.5 cm.
I do not sprinkle the surface, because the dough practically does not stick. You can either lubricate a little with oil, or sprinkle with flour a little.

Step 8
Cut the figures or just walk the stupid side of the knife, making a sort of rhombuses or squares.
Rombs — Squares simple, minute! Figures do longer.
-
Step 9
Put lean cookies on a baking sheet.
Cover it in advance with baking paper.
-
Step 10
Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden. Then let cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
-
Step 11
Everything, simple lean cookies in a hurry.
It turns out not so much that it is especially stored. In a maximum of 2 days we eat everything. In any case, store in a dry place, in a tightly closed jar or box.
The cookies are sandy, crispy. Do not make it fat! It will burn out from above, but it will not bake inside.
Enjoy appetite and delicious cookies.
