Ingredients:
- 150 grams (5.3 oz) butter or margarine, at room temperature
- Half a tea glass of oil (approximately 50 ml or 1.7 fl oz)
- 1 egg (use the white for the topping)
- 1 packet of baking powder
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- Half a teaspoon of cinnamon
- Flour, as needed
For the topping:
- Sesame seeds
- Black cumin seeds
Instructions:
- Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the butter or margarine, oil, egg yolk, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Add Flour: Gradually add flour to the mixture, stirring continuously until a soft dough forms. The dough should not stick to your hands.
- Shape the Dough: Take small portions of the dough, about the size of a walnut, and roll them into balls. Flatten each ball slightly to form small loaves or oval shapes.
- Add Toppings: Dip each shaped dough piece into the egg white, then coat it with the sesame and black cumin seed mixture.
- Arrange on a Tray: Place the coated dough pieces on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Use a knife to make a small cut in the middle of each cookie.
- Bake: Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Bake the cookies in the preheated oven until they are golden brown, which should take about 20-25 minutes.
