Polvorones are crumbly Spanish Christmas biscuits traditionally prepared with flour, fat, sugar and almonds. Their delicate, sandy texture comes from carefully handling the dough and, in many recipes, toasting the flour before baking. This home recipe offers the familiar flavour of cinnamon and lemon.
