How to make cinnamon cookies

The first thing to do is preheat the oven to 180 ºC heat up and down. Put the sugar, honey and diced butter in a bowl.

LauraF

With the help of some electric rods, beat until the ingredients whiten. A few minutes will be enough.

LauraF

Add the beaten egg and mix again with the rods for another minute.

LauraF

Now is the time to add the sifted flour along with the chemical yeast, cinnamon and a pinch of salt.

LauraF

Mix with a silicone spatula, just enough to integrate the ingredients.

LauraF

We have to obtain a homogeneous and manageable mass without sticking to the fingers.

LauraF

Shape the dough into a rectangle and wrap it in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least half an hour in the fridge and 10 minutes in the freezer. It is important to work this dough cold so that it can be handled without deforming.

LauraF

If you see it necessary, flour the baking paper or transparent film and the dough between it. This is done so that the dough cannot stick.

LauraF

Stretch the dough to a thickness of about 3 millimeters.

LauraF

With a cookie cutter or failing that with a knife, cut rectangles of about 9×4 centimeters. That will be the approximate size of our cinnamon cookies. With the cuts we will make a ball, we will refrigerate it and we will proceed in the same way until we finish it.

LauraF

Put the already cut dough on baking paper or on a silpat and decorate the surface with the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Refrigerate the dough for about 10 minutes before baking.

LauraF

Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake at 180ºC for about 14 minutes. The time is relative because it varies depending on the thickness and size that you have given to the cookies and the characteristics of your oven, so I advise you to watch them after 12 minutes of baking.

LauraF

Remove the tray from the oven and allow the cinnamon cookies to cool completely on a wire rack. This will make the steam released from cooking flow better and the cookies will be crispy.

I advise you to keep them in an airtight jar. They will stay crispy much longer but I assure you they will fly away before they can go bad!
