 INGREDIENTS

♨ 200 grams of dark wheat flour
♨ 200 grams of white wheat flour
♨ 220 grams of soft margarine for baking
♨ 1 egg
♨ 100 grams of maple syrup
♨ 10 grams of vanilla sugar
♨ 150 grams of ground walnuts
♨ ½ teaspoon of cinnamon
♨ Grated lemon peel (1 lemon)

 

 

Preparation

 

 

Mix all the ingredients and knead it for about 15 minutes.

Then put dough to rest in refrigerator for one hour. After that turn on oven and preheat it at 180ºC / 356ºF electric oven or 165ºC / 329ºF convection oven.

Meanwhile make some snails (start as you would do walnut croissants and then swirl it). Then put walnut snails on a baking paper and bake it from 15 to 20 minutes.

NOTE!

Maple syrup is very healthy because it contains a lot of antioxidants and more than 50 active/nutritional ingredients, which act against inflammation, prevents development of diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Walnuts must be rough ground, this makes cookies even more tastier/healthier.

A glass of white wine can greatly complement walnut snails.
