Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Stir the baking powder into the lukewarm milk and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar and eggs for about 5 minutes until creamy.
- Stir in the salt, lemon zest, and olive oil, then gradually fold in the sifted flour and the baking powder/milk mixture.
- Mix together well to make a soft dough, then tip onto the work surface and knead for 10 minutes.
- Shape the dough into a 3 foot (1 meter) long sausage, approximately 1 1/2 inches (4 centimeters) wide, then cut into approximately 2 1/2 inch (6.5 centimeter) lengths. You should end up with 15 pieces.
- With your hands, flatten and length each piece slightly, rounding off the ends.
- Space the shaped pieces of dough out onto the prepared baking sheet, sprinkle with a little sugar, then bake in the oven for 20 minutes, until lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven, leave to cool completely on the baking sheet, then serve.
- These cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week (if they last that long!).
