You can use a homemade lemon curd for these, or just one you bought - they really impress guests... From my lovely Breast Wishes cookbook www.breastfriends.ca/ Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/3 cup butter |
2/3 cup buttermilk |
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated |
1/3 cup lemon curd |
sugar, to sprinkle |
Directions:
1. Mix flour, sugar and baking powder. Cut in butter, then stir in buttermilk and ginger. Form into a ball, then divide in half.
2. Line a pie plate or pan with greased foil. Place half the dough on foil and pat into a 7 inch circle, creating a pie crust effect.
3. Cover with lemon curd, then cover with other circle.
4. Fold up edges and seal really well, then sprinkle with sugar.
5. Bake at 400 F for 20 - 25 minutes.
