Prajitura Semiluna fara gluten / Gluten-free traditional Moon cake

Sunt tare bucuroasa ca particip la campania „Gatim romaneste si fara gluten cu Schar„, pe langa faptul ca ajut persoanele cu celiachie sau intoleranta la gluten, aceasta campanie mi-a trezit o gramada de amintiri minunate din copilarie :) Prajitura Semiluna este strans legata de gustul dulce si bun de acasa, de bucataria calda, parfumata in care bunica facea prajituri… Semiluna mea fara gluten iesit atat de pufoasa, ca efectiv mi-a fost greu s-o decupez :)

Ingrediente:

• 5 oua
• 200g zahar brun nerafinat
• 100ml ulei vegetal
• 140g faina Schar mix C Patisserie
• 100g faina Schar mix B Bread mix
• 1 lgt praf de copt bio
• coaja rasa de la 1 lamaie
• 1 praf de sare
• 100g nuca

Separam ouale si batem albusurile spuma cu un praf de sare. Cand amestectul e pufos si ferm, adaugam indulcitorul si, putin cate putin, ca la maioneza, galbenusurile batute cu uleiul si coaja rasa fin de la o lamaie.

La final incorporam usor, cu un tel, si cele 2 tiouri de faina amestecate cu praful de copt, cu grija pentru a pastra cat mai mult aer in aluat.

Turnam compozitia intr-o tava dreptunghiulara (22*32 cm), presaram nuca tocata deasupra si coacem prajitura 25 de min in cuptorul preincalzit la 170C, pana trece testul scobitorii. Dupa ce s-a racit, o decupam cu o forma rotunda pentru biscuiti sau cu un pahar. Pofta mare, copile! :)

ENGLISH VERSION 

The campaign „Gatim romaneste si fara gluten cu Schar„, other than helping people with celiac disease or gluten intolerance, has brought back so many lovely memories from my childhood, like the one related to the classic Moon cake recipe :)

Ingredients:

• 5 eggs
• 200 g brown unrefined sugar
• 100 ml vegetable oil
• 140g Schar C Patisserie flour mix
• 100g Schar B Bread mix flour mix
• 1 tsp organic baking powder
• grated zest of 1 lemon
• 1 pinch of salt
• 100 g walnuts

Separate the eggs and beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they form stiff peaks. When foamy, add the sugar and beat everything until you get a ice glossy meringue. Lower the mixer speed and add the oil, little by little, egg yolks and lemon zest.

In the end slowly fold in the 2 types of flour and baking powder. Pour the batter in a pan (22*32 cm), sprinkle ground walnuts on top and bake for about 25 min at 170C, until a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Cut out in half Moon shapes using a glass and enjoy!
