Instructions
- Mix the flour, baking powder and salt, then add the lukewarm water until you get a soft dough. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
- Mix the crushed walnuts, icing sugar, cinnamon and soft butter to get an even filling.
- Divide the dough into balls and roll each one out into a very thin disc with a rolling pin.
- Spread a layer of filling over one disc, fold it into a half-moon and seal the edges.
- Cook the galettes in a pan over medium-low heat, 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until golden.
- Drizzle with warmed honey just before serving.
Variations and tips
