Soft Lemon Biscuits

   

Ingredients:

2 large eggs

100 g (½ cup) granulated sugar

80 ml (⅓ cup) sunflower oil

Zest of 1 lemon

50 ml (3 tablespoons) fresh lemon juice

380 g (3 cups) all-purpose flour

12 g (2½ teaspoons) baking powder

80 g (½ cup) powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until well combined. Add the sunflower oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice, mixing until smooth.

3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.

4. Shape the Biscuits: Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

6. Dust with Powdered Sugar: Once cooled, dust the biscuits with powdered sugar before serving.
