Lemon and banana Linzer biscuits

Recipes Cakes and Desserts
A modern twist on the classic: thick, creamy banana jam clings perfectly to the tart, lemon zest-scented Linzer rings. Due to the high pectin content of bananas, the filling can be more bake-stable, but here we don't bake it after filling.

Instructions

1 ✓

Rub the cold butter into the flour, icing sugar and lemon zest.

Tip: Work quickly, keep it cold.
2 ✓

Add the egg yolk and knead into a ball. Rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Tip: The fat content of the yolk makes the pastry short (the white would harden it).
3 ✓

Roll out, cut solid and holey rounds. Bake at 180°C for 10-12 minutes (until pale).

Tip: Bake on baking paper.
4 ✓

Cool completely.

Tip: It breaks when warm.
5 ✓

Spread the banana jam on the solid discs, stick the tops on.

Tip: Lacking banana jam, a banana mashed with a fork and mixed with lemon juice will do for fresh consumption.
