Baking Homemade Shortbread Cookies
Baking shortbread relies on simple ingredients and careful preparation on a flat countertop. In a home kitchen, a girl holds a baking sheet filled with warm cookies next to a wooden rolling pin used to flatten dough.
History of Shortbread Pastries
Classic shortbread originated in Scotland, traditionally made with butter, white sugar, and oat flour. Unlike soft cakes, shortbread retains its crisp texture because the high fat content prevents long gluten strands from forming in the dough.
