Wafers with lemon and liquorice


Today it is Easter Saturday, which is the third day in the Danish Easter vacation. Today we should enjoy some more wafers either for dessert.

Again today I have been testing as well as enjoying my new kitchen equipment (Tefal Snack Collection). The selected ingredient today is lemon together with liquorice (classic Danish flavour  combination), as I have to make wafers using one or more of  the assigned ingredients in form of lemon, cinnamon, apple, cumin and Greek yogurt.
As provider of the liquorice I used a combination of dark muscovado sugar, which has liquorice notes as well as liquid liquorice flavour. Liquorice powder could have been used as well.

The taste of lemon and liquorice is not very dominate, it is more to the delicate side, so for more taste dominance the level of lemon peel and liquorice flavour should be increased.

Wafers with lemon and liquorice: - 5 wafers
  • 250 g milk
  • 1 eggs
  • 5 g baking powder
  • 50 g butter - melted
  • 100 g dark muscovado sugar
  • 150 g (cake) wheat flour
  • ½ organic lemon - only the zest
  • 3 drops of liquorice flavour
  1. Add all the dry ingredients into a mixing bowl.
  2. Add egg, melted butter and milk into the mixing bowl, while whipping.
  3. Add in extra liquorice flavour, if needed, and whip again.
  4. Let the wafer dough rest cold for 1 hour.
  5. Heat up the wafer equipment.
  6. Pour 2-3 spoonful of the wafer dough in the wafer equipment. Distribute the dough evenly.
  7. Bake the wafer for approx 4 minutes.
  8. Place the baked wafer on a oven grid, so the steam can disappeared, which ensures, that the wafer will become crisp.
  9. Serve with ice cream and/or jam.
