Ingredients

Method

Preheat the oven to 150˚C.

Lightly grease two shallow 20cm round cake tins.

Sift the flour, cornflour, salt, Gregg's Ground Cinnamon and Nutmeg into a bowl. Rub in the butter until the mixture is the consistency of fine breadcrumbs, then add the caster sugar.

Knead the mixture until it is smooth. Knead in the pistachio nuts.

Place the mixture into the cake tins and press the top firmly with the back of a large spoon. Crimp the edges by pinching the mixture between your finger and thumb. Prick the top with a fork.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the shortbread is a pale gold colour.

Remove from the oven and sprinkle with extra caster sugar. Mark each shortbread into 12 wedges with a sharp knife. Cut into pieces while still warm.
