Pre heat time: 10 mins

Cook temp: 160°C

Cook time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

• 160g All-Purpose Flour
• 130 g sugar
• 40g sesame seeds, lightly toasted
• 35g almond flour
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 85g cold unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons cold water

Preparation:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, sesame seeds, almond flour, and salt. Combine butter into the flour mixture with your fingertips; rub together until it resembles coarse mixture.
2. Combine the vanilla and water in a small cup. Drizzle the flour mixture with the water and vanilla, gently mix.
3. Line a 9" x 5" loaf pan with plastic wrap, and pour the mixture into it. Cover with plastic wrap, and press it down very firmly to an even, compact layer about 1/2" thick. Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.

To Bake:

1. Preheat the oven to 160°C. Line baking sheets with parchment.
2. Unwrap the dough and place it on a cutting board. Using a long, sharp knife, cut the dough crosswise into 1/4” thin slices, further cut slices into 2 cm thick fingers.  Use the knife to transfer each pieces to the prepared baking sheets, laying them flat and placing them 1" apart.
3. Bake the sticks for 15 mins, until they're golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool on the pan before transferring to an airtight container once completely cooled.
