Best recipe idea for Christmas: Linzer eyes from the apartment house in S\u00f6ll<\/h2><\/h1><\/div>

Linzer eyes – a typical Austrian Christmas biscuit recipe<\/span><\/h3>\n

When it starts to snow softly in S\u00f6ll and the mountains of the Wilder Kaiser are covered in a thick blanket of snow, it gets quiet and cozy here at Appartement Haus Bergland. At this special time, the sweet smell of vanilla, butter dough and apricot jam wafts through the kitchens of our vacation apartments – it’s time for Linzer Augen, a real classic of Tyrolean Christmas baking. <\/p>\n

These small, crumbly works of art simply belong on every lovingly topped plate of cookies in Tyrol – including in your vacation apartment at Appartement Haus in S\u00f6ll, of course. We would like to share this delicious, traditional recipe, which we also bake for our family every year, with you today and conjure up a little Tyrolean Christmas atmosphere in your home. <\/p>\n

Christmas magic with tradition: Linz eyes like grandma’s<\/span><\/h3>\n

Whether they really come from Linz or not, Linzer Augen have long held a firm place in the heart of the Advent season here at the Wilder Kaiser. Filled with fruity apricot jam and delicately dusted with powdered sugar, they are not only a treat, but also a piece of home. <\/p>\n

And best of all, they are wonderful to prepare together with the family – preferably on a snowy afternoon in your cozy vacation apartment with a view of the surrounding Wilder Kaiser mountains.<\/p>\n

How to make linzer eyes particularly well<\/span><\/h3>\n

The fine shortcrust pastry is the soul of these cookies – and, as with many Austrian recipes, you need to be a master of the art. It is important to work quickly so that the butter remains cool and the dough retains its fine structure. After kneading, give the dough a break in the fridge – wrapped in cling film to prevent it from drying out. When rolling out and cutting, use flour sparingly so that the cookies do not crumble later. <\/p>\n
