How it's done

Dough

Mix the flour, almonds, baking powder, oregano and salt in a bowl. Add the butter and rub together using your hands to form an even, crumbly mixture. Add the water, olives and tomatoes, mix quickly to form a soft dough; do not knead. Cover and chill for approx. 30 mins.

To shape

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough in batches to approx. 7 mm thick. Cut out Christmas trees (each approx. 6 cm in diameter), place on two baking trays lined with baking paper, brush with oil, season with salt.

To bake

Approx. 15 mins. per tray in the centre of an oven preheated to 200°C. Remove from the oven, leave to cool completely on a rack.
