buttered cornmeal biscuit

Undoubtedly, a biscuit matches that yummy breakfast or afternoon coffee. Especially those buttery versions that melt in your mouth. Exactly what this cornmeal cookie looks like.

With very few ingredients you will make a dough that is easy to work with, with a super simple preparation method and with an excellent yield.

gluten free cookie

One of the differentials of this recipe is the fact that it does not contain any wheat flour. Here, we will only use cornmeal and cornstarch to reach the point of the dough.

In this way, it becomes a great option for those who have any type of gluten allergy or intolerance.

guava filling

I confess that I love the mixture of the flavor of corn and guava paste, so much so that I’ve made not only cakes, but also waffles with this combination. That’s why, when filling my cookies, I didn’t even think of another possibility.

And to make the preparation even easier, my tip is to leave your guava paste out of the fridge and, with the help of a fork, knead it a little to make it easier when spreading it over the biscuit, which is somewhat delicate.

In any case, you can combine such a biscuit with other fillings. Just as you can choose not to stuff it and eat it plain. In addition, you can add grated coconut to the dough or even cheese.
