Ingredients

180gm butter with 10gm Country Farm Organics Virgin Coconut Oil
115gm Castor Sugar
17gm Egg Yolk
¾ tsp Vanilla Essence
190gm Country Farm Organics All Purpose Flour
2 tbsp (12g. rice flour)
½ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp French Sea Salt
25gm Pistachio Nuts (Roasted) Coarsely Grounded

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

2. Prepare Wet Ingredients:

In a mixing bowl, combine the butter (or coconut oil) and sugar.
Add the egg yolk and vanilla essence to the bowl.
Mix or beat the ingredients together until they are well combined, but avoid overbeating.

3. Prepare Dry Ingredients:

In a separate bowl, sift the all-purpose flour, rice flour, and baking powder.
Add a pinch of salt and stir in the coarsely ground pistachio nuts (saving some for coating).

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in 2-3 batches.
Use a spatula and mix in a cutting method to ensure everything is incorporated without overmixing.
Once the dough is ready, transfer it to a plate.
Using a plastic spoon, scoop out small portions of dough weighing approximately 10 grams each.
Place the remaining coarsely ground pistachios on a separate plate.
Dip each dough portion (don't roll) into the ground pistachios, ensuring the dough is lightly coated.
Arrange the dough balls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Use a fork to press down on each dough ball to create an indent.

5. Bake the Cookies

Bake the cookies for 25-28 minutes, checking for the desired golden colour.

6. Cool, Store and Enjoy:

Once baked, allow the cookies to cool completely before storing them in an airtight container.
It can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 weeks.
