Carrot and Clementine Cookies
Recipe type: Christmas
Serves: 12
 
Ingredients
  • 85g room temperature salted butter
  • 125g light brown sugar
  • 130g plain flour
  • 1 tsp mixed spice
  • 1 large carrot, peeled and finely grated
  • Zest of 2 clementines, plus 1 tbsp juice
Instructions
  1. The process is very simple: cream the butter and sugar then stir through the zest and carrot.
  2. Add all the dry ingredients and stir well, which will give you a very dry mix, which is why you add your tablespoon of juice.
  3. Dump heaped teaspoons of the mix- well-spaced- on a lined baking tray and bake at 180C for 10 minutes. They will seem soft but trust that they will crisp as they cool.
  4. If baking in the Aga, I baked on the bottom set of runners in the Roasting Oven with the cold plain shelf on the third set of runners for about 12 minutes.
