Lavender biscuits (Gluten and lactose free)

When I go out into the garden and smell the lavender, my memory receptors are activated; today I wanted  throw in also a food memory, so I thought to try to prepare biscuits with whipped gluten and lactose free shortcrust pastry.

The smell of these biscuits is unmistakable and persistent, but the taste is very delicate and it’s perfect with coffee at the end of the dinner, or for a tea with friends.

These biscuits are without gluten and lactose, and so they are suitable for almost everyone, but in addition to this, it’s important to remember that lavender has anti-inflammatory, relaxing and digestive properties, so it’s a cure-all for the body.

In another bowl, mix the egg yolks with sugar and vanilla using a whisk, add the hot rice milk and mix until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Pour the mixture into the ramekins, the ideal ones are high 1.5 or 2 cm.

Cook the crème anglaise in a static oven in a bain-marie at 130 ° C for 40 – 50 minutes, arrange the ramekins in a roasting tin containing boiling water, that has the same level as the custard in the ramekins.

Check cooking: the crème anglaise is cooked if it wobbles slightly when you move the cocotte.

Allow the cream to cool, cover the cream with a uniform layer of sugar (about 1/4), turn on the bowl torch, caramelize and melt the sugar from the centre.

Proceed in the same manner for all the ramekins.

You will have to get a crust of about 1 mm thickness.

Serve while the caramel is still warm.

When I think about a typical English dessert, I think about muffins, soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside.

Their preparation has only one rule, the dry and liquid mixtures have to be prepared separately and then mixed as a lumpy dough, which will become smooth in cooking. Apart from this theoretical description, I love them because they are sweet but not too much – they are just right.

Apple pie

I love the typical American desserts, after brownies, cookies and red velvet, we couldn’t miss the queen of American tradition, the Apple Pie.

The recipe is quite simple, the crust has a delicate, almost neutral taste, but as soon as you plunge the knife to get the first slice, the intense aroma of apples and spices is released in the air.

Line the mould and fill it

Preheat the static oven to 180°, grease and flour a 24 cm cake mould.

Remove the dough from the fridge and split in two parts 2/3 for the case and 1/3 for the cover, take the biggest part and roll out it with a rolling pin, line the mold and cut off the excess.

Prick the bottom of the dough with a fork, drain the apples from the liquid and fill the case with the filling.

Place the filling in the centre creating a dome, add flaked butter and a teaspoon of brown sugar.

Roll out the dough and cover the apple filling, fix the edges.

Close the apple pie and bake

Seal the edges with a fork, make a hole in the center of the apple pie, it’s necessary to let out the steam during the baking.

Brush the surface with lightly beaten egg, roll out the remaining dough and cut out some leaves that will be used to decorate the edge. If you want to add a touch of colour, you can add a little green dye before rolling out the dough and making the leaves.

Then brush the leaves with the egg and bake for 40 minutes.
