This
is the best biscuit recipe without eggs. You will not realize that it has no
eggs in it. Trust me you will fall in love with these biscuits.
During
the holiday or festival season, these biscuits are a must in my home along with
some other baked goodies; because we all love it.
This
biscuit is a classic English dessert. In India, Shrewsbury biscuits are one of
the most popular biscuits in the country and this one tastes really close to
it. They are locally produced in the city of Pune, Maharashtra.
I
had them whenever I pass by the famous Kayani bakery in Pune. It was a pleasure
recreating this biscuits/cookie at home. The classic English biscuit recipe calls
for egg; though this eggless version is as good as them.
This
eggless version of biscuit is very easy to make that even beginners can also
make this successfully. These cookies are rich in flavors and more crispy.
Step by step recipe
of eggless biscuits:
Take ¾ cup butter and ¾ cup sugar.
Whip together until light and fluffy.
Add ¼ cup apple juice.
And mix well.
We will need 2 cups of flour. Stir
in the flour in small batches.
Adding more flour in below pic.
And finally mix well using hands to form a fairly firm dough.
Take
out a portion of dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly to get smooth
dough.
Roll
out the dough into ½ inch thickness.
Use a cutter and cut the dough into
desired shape.
Place
the cutouts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, keeping sufficient distance between each. Bake in
a preheated oven at 350 Degree F. for about 15 minutes or until the biscuits
are firm and turn golden.
Turn
them over onto a wire rack to cool completely.
The hot cookies will be soft but will turn crunchy when they cool down.
Store
them in an airtight container and enjoy.
