Cinnamon Pretzels

Mix flour and finely ground almonds in a bowl.

Add 125 g sugar, the butter cut into pieces, the egg yolk, a pinch of salt and the cinnamon, and knead everything into a smooth dough.

Wrap the dough in cling film and chill it in the fridge for about 60 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 180 °C (convection) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Roll the dough out on a floured surface to about 0.5 cm thickness and cut out pretzels using a pretzel cookie cutter.

Place the cut pretzels onto the prepared baking sheet.

Lightly beat the egg white, brush the pretzels with it and sprinkle them generously with sugar.

Bake the cinnamon pretzels in the oven for about 15 minutes until they are lightly golden.
