Ingredients
- 250 gr all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 120 gr unsalted cold butter cut into pieces
- 50 gr cheddar cheese coarsely grated
- 120 ml buttermilk
- 120 gr pumpkin purée
For brushing the surface of the cookies
- 1 unit egg beaten
- 1 pinch Salt flakes
- q.s. Sesame seeds
Maple-flavored Butter
- 120 gr Butter softened
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- q.s. Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Beat the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, and cinnamon in a large bowl.
- Use a pastry cutter, fork, or fingertips to cut the butter into the flour mixture until pieces are pea-sized.
- Add the cheddar cheese and mix quickly to combine. Add the buttermilk and pumpkin purée, using a fork to stir until the dough is incorporated and mixed.
- Pour the mixture onto a lightly floured large sheet of parchment paper, gently press the dough and then pat it with your hands to form a rectangle about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick.
- Using the paper's edge, if needed, fold the dough into thirds like a letter, using the longer sides of the rectangle. Repeat this step, flattening again into a 1 cm rectangle and folding into thirds again like a letter.
- Finally, sprinkle some flour on the dough and gently stretch to about 2 cm thickness.
- Use a 6 cm floured round cookie cutter to cut discs from the dough. Do not rotate the cutter; make straight up-and-down cuts. Reform and cut the remaining dough.
- Arrange the cookies, one inch apart, on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the surface of the cookies with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds, flexible seeds, and a pinch of salt.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until crispy and golden.
- Meanwhile, beat the softened butter, maple syrup, and a pinch of salt until fluffy.
- Serve the cookies warm, spread with maple-flavored butter.
