Horchata and Fartons

Horchata is a refreshing Spanish drink made from tiger nuts, and Fartons are sweet, soft bread perfect for dipping in the Horchata.

Ingredients - Serves 4

Soak the tiger nuts in water overnight. Drain and blend with fresh water. Strain the mixture and add sugar and cinnamon. Chill before serving.
For the Fartons, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, milk, and melted butter. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth. Roll the dough into a rectangle and cut into long, thin strips.
Place the strips on a baking sheet and let them rise for an hour.
Preheat the oven to 350°F and bake the Fartons for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Dust with powdered sugar before serving with the Horchata.
