Mantecados of Walnuts with oil and Vanilla

With the walnuts that brought me from San Mateo, Gran Canaria, I had to do something special and more in the time when we are, almost Christmas.

These shortcakes are not dense at all because they don't have lard and vegans can eat them.

INGREDIENTS

200 grams of ground nuts
400 grams of flour
a pinch of salt
160 grams of icing sugar
230 grams of millet oil (corn)
1 tablespoon vanilla 
2 sachets of vanilla sugar (16 gr)

PREPARATION

Put the flour in the oven and roast it lightly. We let it cool down.

In a bowl put the oil with the two types of sugar and vanilla. We mix well. Add the nuts and mix. Finally, add the flour and knead. We form a cylinder and wrap it in film paper.

Preheat the oven to 180ºC.

We lined an oven tray with vegetable paper.

Cut into thin slices and place them on the baking sheet. Bake 15-20 minutes.

Leave to cool. Do not handle until completely cold.
