Ceglie Biscuit
Ceglie biscuits are Apulian almond sweets filled with jam, baked until chewy, and often glazed lightly, giving each small cookie a fragrant citrus and toasted nut finish.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dessert)
Grind almonds with sugar and lemon zest until the mixture resembles coarse paste.
Bind with egg whites and cinnamon, then shape small pieces around a dab of cherry jam or grape preserves.
Bake until the cookies are set with lightly toasted edges but still chewy inside.
Brush or drizzle with a thin coffee glaze and cool before serving.
