Cook 15 min

Directions :

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

In the mixer bowl, combine first baking powder then flour, Parmesan, melted butter cold, the egg beaten and cream. Mix and knead them briefly to get dough.

Roll dough out into a thick round. Cut into 16 wedges, and place on baking sheet or pan.

Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden brown.

You can serve them with smoked salmon, tomatoes salad... or make them smaller for one mouthful.
