I first made these cookies when a group of us from Red Wagon Plants took an herb cooking class with Jessica Bongard of Sweet Lime Cooking Studio last summer. We had such a fun time making herbal treats together, and I thought I would share this recipe. I just made it for our Open House and it was such a tasty way to use sage in a not-too sweet treat.

Sage Cookies

1 3/4 cups all purpose flour 1/3 cup sugar 1/4 cup yellow cornmeal 1/2 cup butter (one stick), room temp 2 Tbsp chopped fresh sage 6 Tbsp milk 1 egg white, beaten with 1 Tbsp water (egg wash) fresh little sage leaves coarse sugar to sprinkle

Preheat oven to 375
Whisk together flour, sugar, and cornmeal in medium bowl
Cut in butter using a fork, until fine crumb forms
Stir in chopped sage
Add milk stir with fork
Make dough into 2 balls
Roll out to 1/8 inch thick
Use 2 inch cookie cutter, onto cookie sheet
Brush with egg wash, add sage leaf or two, brush with egg wash again to seal
Sprinkle with sugar
Bake 12 minutes, until edges brown, turning pan halfway through

Enjoy!
