Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the butter, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until smooth. Add the egg, sunflower seed oil, almond extract, flour, and baking powder. Mix until a soft dough forms.

  2. Divide the dough into small pieces. Shape each piece into a cone using a paper cone mold, and make a small hole in the center of each.

  3. Place the prepared dough pieces on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 12 minutes.

  4. While the pastries bake, mix the peach jam with 1 tablespoon of water. Once the pastries are baked and slightly cooled, fill the center holes with the jam mixture.
