DESSERT - WALNUT SHORTBREAD - Rodas-recipes
This method of making shortbread eliminates the NEED TO USE BUTTER ..a staple ingredient of shortbread. Walnuts and olive oil are a good replacement and the result is rich tasting with no cholestrol; and full of healthy monounsaturated fats. Walnuts contain ellagic acid.... a potent antioxidant.
225 gms plain flour
100 gms rice flour
125 gms olive oil and 100 gms walnuts gently pulverised in a grinder
100 gms caster sugar
a little extra caster sugar for dredging
Grease and line a round 12 inch tin. Sift the flour and salt and add all the ingredients. Knead it lightly to mix and roll it out in a circle. Press into the tin and bake for about an hour on gas mark 4. When it begins to look lightly colored remove and dredge with sugar and cut into portions.
