Gureybe are traditional Jordanian cookies that use little beyond butter and flour, topped with pistachios. Avoiding excess mixing after adding the flour is the key to keeping their characteristic crumbly texture.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Beat the Butter and Sugar

8 min

Beat the room-temperature butter with the confectioners’ sugar until pale, smooth, and soft.

2

Gently Mix in the Flour

10 min

Add the flour gradually. Use a spatula to mix just until the dough comes together, without kneading, to make a soft dough.

3

Shape and Garnish

7 min

Shape the dough into small balls and flatten them slightly. Press crushed pistachios onto the top of each cookie.

4

Air-Fry the Cookies

15 min

Arrange the cookies with space between them in the air fryer basket. Cook until the bottoms are lightly set without letting the tops get too dark.

Reminder

After adding the flour, do not overmix the dough. Developing too much gluten makes the cookies tough and less crumbly. Contains wheat (gluten), dairy (butter), and tree nuts (pistachios).

İkinci denemede unu tek seferde değil üç kere azar azar eklediğimde hamur çok daha yumuşak kaldı ve kurabiyeler ağızda gerçekten dağıldı. Antep fıstığını kabaca kırıp üzerine bastırdım, hem görünüş hem çıtırlık için iyi oldu.

Hamuru gerekenden fazla yoğurdum, kurabiyeler sert ve yoğun çıktı; olması gereken ağızda dağılan kıvamı hiç yakalayamadım. Airfryer'da 15 dakika yetmedi, 20 dakika sürdü ama yine de içi hafif hamur kaldı.
