For the dough:

250 g cold organic ghee, diced (or 250 g organic vegan butter)
350 g smooth organic spelt flour
2 tbsp organic cornstarch
100 g finely ground organic linseeds
100 g finely ground organic panela sugar
20 g Bourbon vanilla bean paste
A pinch of rock salt

Vanilla sugar coating:

125 g whole linseeds
100 g organic powdered sugar
1 packet of organic vanilla sugar

Knead all dough ingredients into a smooth mixture, wrap in cling film, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Shape the dough into a roll about 2 cm thick. Cut the roll into 1 cm pieces and shape them into small crescents ("Kipferl").
Place the crescents on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake at 160°C for 10–15 minutes, until the tips of the Kipferl are lightly browned.
For the vanilla sugar mixture, roast the linseeds in the oven at 160°C for about 6–10 minutes, then allow them to cool completely. Once cooled, blend the linseeds finely with the remaining ingredients.

Gently coat the cooled Kipferl in the sugar mixture.
