Directions

1. Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, citrus zest, melted butter, eggs, and a pinch of salt until well combined. Gradually add the flour and baking powder, mixing until a smooth dough forms.

2. Step

Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface and cut into small rounds using a cookie cutter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

3. Step

Brush the tops of the biscuits with the egg yolk and use a fork to create decorative indentations. Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the top, then bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
