A German winter-market classic, zimtsterne uses ground almonds instead of flour, making its dough naturally low in carbohydrates and easy to adapt for a ketogenic diet. Cut into stars, the cookies are finished with a smooth white glaze.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the dough

10 min

Whisk the egg whites with the erythritol until stiff, then fold in the ground almonds and cinnamon and knead gently.

2

Cut the stars

5 min

Roll the dough out to 1 centimetre thickness, dusting plenty of ground almonds underneath, and cut out stars with a cutter.

3

Bake the cookies

13 min

Whisk the second egg white with the remaining erythritol and brush it over the stars, then bake in an oven preheated to 150°C for 13 minutes, watching that the glaze does not bubble.

Reminder

Dust plenty of ground almonds under the dough as you roll it — without flour it is sticky and falls apart easily. Allergens: contains tree nuts (almond), egg.

13 dakika sonunda sırım hafifçe kabarcıklandı, fırın sıcaklığını 150 yerine daha düşük bir dereceye mi düşürmeliydim yoksa toplam süreyi 10 dakikaya mı kısaltmalıydım, hangisi daha doğru olurdu emin olamadım?

Sıcaklığı 140 dereceye deneyebilirsiniz, sırın kabarcıklanması genelde ısının fazla olmasından kaynaklanır. Süreyi kısaltmak yerine sıcaklığı azaltırsanız yıldızlar dışarıdan kurumadan sır düz kalır.
