|
||
|
|
- 2 eggs
|
||
|
|
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
|
||
|
|
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
|
||
|
|
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
|
||

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
1. In a large bowl, mix olive oil with sugar, eggs, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
|

2. Add flour, baking powder, and salt, and mix gently until dough forms.

3. Lightly dust parchment paper with flour. Divide dough in half and roll it out to 1/8th-inch thick. Cut out 3-inch rounds. Fill with one teaspoon of your favourite filling. Fold the left side over the filling in to the center, then the right side, and finally the bottom side, making a triangle.
