Ingredients
  

  • 150 g Almond flour
  • 250 g flour
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 200 g softened butter
  • 80 g sugar
  • 1 egg at room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 200 g orange marmalade
  • powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating the oven to 350° F.
  • Combine almond flour, all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder until well combined.
  • Use the paddle attachment on your stand mixer to beat softened butter and sugar for about five minutes. Then add the egg and vanilla, and mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic film, and chill for two hours or overnight.

Shaping:

  • Prepare about 3 baking sheets and line them with parchment paper. To cut out shapes, roll out the dough to a thickness of about 4 mm, and use my Linzer cookie cutters to cut the shapes.
  • Allow the precut cookies to sit on the baking sheets and freeze for a couple of minutes before baking them.
  • Remove from the oven after 8 minutes and let cool on the cookie sheet.
  • Take two matching halves. Spread some orange marmalade onto the bottom half of your cookie and sandwich them together. Dust the tops with icing sugar.

Notes

The cookie dough can be prepared up to two days in advance and kept in the refrigerator. If you plan to make a large batch, the dough can also be frozen and kept for up to two months. Just thaw the dough in the refrigerator before shaping it.
You can rotate the baking sheet after 4 minutes to stop the cookies on the back from browning excessively. The cookies shouldn't brown too much.
