Ingredients
- 60g butter, cubed
- 140g honey- I used raw honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- 170g plain flour
- 65g self raising flour
- 1/2 teaspooon bi carb soda
Instructions
- Place butter, honey and vanilla into bowl.
- Melt at 100 degrees, speed 2 for 5 minutes.
- Add remaining ingredients.
- Mix on speed 3 for 30 seconds
- This will be a sticky, wet dough. It firms upon cooling however.
- Remove dough from bowl or saucepan and place onto a silicone mat in a rectangle shape to cool for 30-45 minutes. Be careful as this will be hot. Do not put it in the fridge or leave it too long as it will be harder to work with. I manage to work on it immediately without waiting. The consistency was just right
- Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Line two large baking trays with baking paper.
- Once dough is slightly cooled and easy to work with, roll out into a thin rectangle about 2mm in thickness. When I roll, I lift and flip it over a few times whilst rolling to ensure its an even roll. Work gently and slowly when lifting and flipping.
- If your dough is sticky allow it to cool a little longer. You want a dough that is able to be lifted from the surface it is being rolled on.
- Using a small teddy cutter cut shapes from the dough. You may choose to cut and then place the teddy on the tray or you may chose to cut them all at once then peel away from the mat and put on the tray. You can see both options in the blog photo.
- These will only need to bake for 5-8 minutes or so. Watch them very carefully. You want them golden and a crunch to them. If you do not cook long enough you may have less crunchy teddies on day two and beyond. Do not overcook though. Burnt honey is not tasty. Every oven varies so watch them closely. I baked mine in 5 minutes.
