Lemon and butter cornflake bites

Cornflakes coat these little butter and lemon treats, giving them a crisp outside. The dough is prepared separately from the cereal and placed in individual baking cases before baking.

LET’S GET COOKING

Method

  1. Mix the flour, sugar, eggs, butter, baking powder and lemon zest until they come together into an even dough. Keep the cornflakes and icing sugar separate.

  2. Divide the dough into small portions and shape into balls. Roll them in the cornflakes, gently pressing the flakes into place.

  3. Place each ball in an oven-safe baking case and arrange the cases on a baking tray, leaving space between them.

  4. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C for about 15–20 minutes, checking for doneness according to the size of the treats.

  5. Leave to cool and dust with icing sugar.
