What do we like the gastronomy of our regions! After the southern recipe of the fougasse with olives or that of the welsh, as at the "Ch'tis", direction Brittany. The region, known for its rich and gourmet dishes, full of culinary nuggets. No doubt, do you know the far breton or the lace pancakes? And let's not talk about pancakes.
These crispy and generous cookies delight many sweet beaks. Only problem: it is not always easy to find the flavors of our childhood making everything homemade. Fortunately, the Traou Mad cookie factory has just revealed its most kept secret. On the occasion of its 100th anniversary, it reveals how to reinvent its patties from your kitchen. At your stove!
How to make Galettes de Pont-Aven like Traou Mad?
Without revealing all of its techniques, the famous brand still shared the list of ingredients that make up its patties. So, to revisit this classic, you need:
- Fresh outdoor eggs
- Fresh Breton butter
- Flour from the Pont-Aven mill
- Sugar
- 1 pinch of Guérande salt
In a large bowl, mix the butter, slightly softened, the flour and the sugar. Then, break the eggs and beat the preparation vigorously. Add a pinch of Guérande salt. Form a ball with the dough. Sprinkle your work surface with a little flour and spread it out, using a roller or a glass bottle. Form small circles of the size of your choice with a cookie cutter. Place the patties on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. For more authenticity, don't forget to put the Traou Mad stamp on it! Finally, put the patties in the oven, making sure to brown them and not toast. Take them out of the oven, let them cool and enjoy! And to keep them, place them in a metal box. Your patties will be perfect for breakfast or to taste.
