Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F / 180C. Line a baking tray with parchment.
  2. Finely grate the Romanesco or whiz it in a food processor until it resembles fine crumbs. Heat it in the microwave, or in a dry pan on the stove, for 2 minutes to dry it out slightly. Allow to cool.
  3. Cream the butter and sugar with an electric whisk until light and fluffy. Add the lemon zest and juice and mix well.
  4. Stir in the romanesco, oats, flour and ground cardamom and combine.
  5. Roll the batter into balls, place on the prepared baking tray and press down lightly with a fork.
  6. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden. Cool slightly on the tray and then cool completely on a wire rack.
