Almond Pistachio Cookied With Saffron Icing Recipe

Name: Almond Pistachio Cookied With Saffron Icing
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 14 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 15 servings
Ingredients: 140 grams flour; 5 tablespoons sunflower oil; 7 tablespoons milk; 6 tablespoons muscovado sugar / castor sugar; 0.25 teaspoon vanilla essence; 0.25 cup almonds; 0.25 cup pistachio; 0.25 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda; 1 pinch salt; 2.5 tbsp icing castor sugar

These almond pistachio cookies are a tender, oil-based bake, skipping the butter for a lighter texture. They're studded with chopped almonds and pistachios, then finished with a fragrant saffron icing once cooled. The dough comes together quickly, and the cookies bake in under ten minutes, making them a relatively quick project.
