🛒 Ingredients
🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Cut the dried apricots into small cubes for even distribution in the dough. Set aside.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, mix the flour and baking powder. Add the cold butter cut into pieces and rub with your fingertips to get a sandy texture.

  3. 3

    Incorporate the grated cheese, raisins, apricot cubes and chopped herbs. Mix well.

  4. 4

    Add the egg, milk, salt and pepper. Mix just enough to form a homogeneous dough without overworking it.

  5. 5

    Preheat the oven to 180°C. Form dough balls, place them on a baking sheet with parchment paper and flatten them slightly.

  6. 6

    Bake for 15 min until golden on the edges. Let cool for 5 min on the sheet before serving.

Tips & Tricks
  • Serve warm or at room temperature with a glass of dry white wine or a fresh cocktail.
  • For less sticky dough, refrigerate it for 10 min before shaping the balls.
  • Store for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Reheat slightly in the oven to regain crispness.
  • Variations: replace cheese with parmesan, dried fruits with cranberries or add a pinch of curry.
