Method

  • 1.
    Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
  • 2.
    Mix hazelnut meal and sugar in a large bowl. Add egg whites and orange zest and mix using your hands to create a paste. Shape 1 tbs of paste into a rough 3cm x 4cm rectangle. Dust in icing sugar to coat well, then place on the prepared tray. Repeat with remaining mixture, leaving plenty of room between each biscuit for spreading. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the cookies look slightly crackled and the base is firm. Cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve.

Recipe Notes

These biscuits keep for a week in an airtight container, so double the recipe if you like, and make a bigger batch for the cookie jar.
