Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- 530 g all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
Whisk the flour and baking powder together; set aside.
- 1½ cup very light olive oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
In a big bowl whisk the olive oil, sugar, vanilla, orange juice and baking soda until smooth.
- 3 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup orange juice
- ½ tsp baking soda
Whisk in the flour mixture a little at a time; it looks like a thick pancake batter.
- flour
Add more flour by hand, kneading as you go, until no longer sticky and not falling apart; do not overwork.
Portion into balls of about 35 g, walnut-sized, weighing for uniform size.
Squeeze each ball together and roll into a rod 6 to 8 inches long; if it breaks, bunch it up, squeeze and roll again.
Fold in half and twist into a rope, or form S shapes or circles, on parchment-lined baking trays.
Bake at 350F for 20 to 25 minutes until golden around the edges, rotating trays if baking more than one.
