Ingredients
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 10 grams Cornstarch
- 1 pinch Salt
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 80 grams Neutral vegetable oil (like canola or sunflower)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large egg white
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Set the dry ingredients aside.
Step 3
In a separate larger mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and vegetable oil. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and the sugar begins to dissolve.
Step 4
Add the vanilla extract and egg whites to the sugar and oil mixture. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy.
Step 5
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula. Mix until a smooth batter forms, being careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Transfer the batter into a piping bag fitted with a small round tip.
Step 7
Pipe small 2-inch (5 cm) lines onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each line to allow for spreading.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes or until the edges of the biscuits turn a light golden brown.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy these crisp and delicate dairy-free Langue de Chat biscuits as a perfect accompaniment to your afternoon tea or coffee.
