Olive oil biscuits are made with a fantastic shortcrust pastry without butter.
A healthy alternative, but without giving up the goodness of shortcrust pastry.

50g. of almond flour
100 g. of sugar
130 g. of olive oil
A pinch of saltThe peel of a lemon or orange2 eggsA little cold water for kneading
PREPARATION
Biscuits with olive oil are not difficult to prepare, in fact, the first thing to do is to create a fountain with 00 flour and almond flour.
At this point we add the sugar, salt and eggs, one by one.
We insert the peels last, and then mix everything vigorously with a fork.
Our dough is ready!
We let it rest for half an hour in the fridge, wrapped in cling film.
After letting it rest in the fridge, we roll out our dough and line a tart container. Baking paper and insert our dough, piercing it with a fork.
With the remaining dough we make our sweet biscuits.
Once baked at 180° for 20' and then left to cool, we can decide whether to dip them in milk, for breakfast or directly to accompany with coffee.
And why not, even as a snack.
And voilà!
Our tart with orange jam and biscuits to garnish it are ready to be eaten.
