Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

Mix the flour with the baking powder, a pinch of salt, and the softened butter.
Pour in the yogurt and work into a smooth dough.
Roll out the dough and cut it into thin sticks.
Brush the sticks with beaten egg and sprinkle with cheese and caraway seeds to taste.
Bake at 180 °C (350 °F) for approximately 20–25 minutes.

Tip: Cut the sticks with a pastry wheel along a ruler so they are evenly sized and bake at the same rate. Gently press the cheese and caraway into the dough with your palm so the topping stays on after baking.
