Flour Kurabiye[edit | edit source]

Flour Kurabiye is a traditional Turkish cookie made with flour, butter, sugar, and various flavorings. It is a popular treat during festive occasions and is often served with tea or coffee.

Ingredients[edit | edit source]

To make Flour Kurabiye, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 2 cups of all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup of unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
  • A pinch of salt

Instructions[edit | edit source]

1. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. You can use an electric mixer or do it by hand.

2. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.

3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.

4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing well after each addition. The dough should come together and be slightly crumbly.

5. Use your hands to knead the dough until it forms a smooth ball. If the dough is too dry, you can add a little bit of milk or water to help bind it together.

6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

7. Take small portions of the dough and roll them into small balls, about the size of a walnut.

8. Place the dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between each cookie.

9. Flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on the top.

10. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until they turn golden brown around the edges.

11. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.

12. Once the cookies have cooled completely, they are ready to be enjoyed!

Serving Suggestions[edit | edit source]

Flour Kurabiye is best served with a hot cup of tea or coffee. They can be enjoyed as a snack or served as a dessert after a meal. These cookies also make great gifts during holidays or special occasions.
