Buttery jam-filled sandwich biscuits are what dreams are made of. The almond flour in the dough gives these cookies just the right amount of nuttiness. Their fun little windows showcase its delicious filling and just tempt you to dig right in!
Fill these with your favourite jam (or even Nutella or Caramel) and play around with the shape of your cookie cutters to make fun alternatives throughout the year. These cookies are perfect for Christmas, valentines day or any day of the year.
These typical Austrian cookies are a form of shortbread cookies filled with preserves. They are named after the city Linz in Austria and are traditionally served during Christmas. 🎄
There are 1001 ways to fill your Linzer cookies. Traditionally they are filled with preserves and flavourings can vary. But here are some of my top recommendations:
Baking time and oven temperature may vary depending on your used oven. All oven temperatures in my recipes are based on a conventional oven. If you bake with a fan-assisted oven, turn down the temperature slightly as these ovens tend to become hotter than a conventional oven at that temperature setting. Ovens have the tendency to deviate from the temperature you set the oven to. I would highly recommend using an oven thermometer to ensure the inside of your oven is at the right temperature. My oven for example only goes up to 160C even though I turn it up to 230C
An oven that is too hot may result in an overbaked or burnt bake, an oven that is too cold may result in underbaked and soggy bakes. Having the thermometer will not only help in getting the right temperature but also helps in determining the right baking time.
The size of your baking dish may also highly affect your baking time. A wider pan means that the batter spreads out more, resulting in it baking faster than in a smaller pan where the batter is thicker in height.
Remember that cookies continue to cook once they’re out of the oven, so they are very easy to overbake. Take them out as soon as the edges start to brown, they’ll continue cooking and will be perfect once cooled down.
If you want the biscuits to stay crispy, store the baked cookies separately and only assemble them right before serving. The moisture from the jam will automatically soften the cookies when stored.
Store your cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Refer to the above if you want them to stay crunchy.
