Orejitas

This is a sponsored post by Tadin.  Thank you for supporting the brands I love that make this website possible.

This year, I’ve become an avid tea drinker. I promised myself that in the new year, I would create a routine that would involve tea and a good book. If it’s right before bedtime or early in the morning, I’ve found it very easy to incorporate in my daily activities. One of my New Year’s resolutions was to read at least 40 books in 2018. I think I will meet that goal with the help of a nice cup of tea by my side.

I like to try different varieties of tea with different accompaniments. One of my favorites pairings is TADIN chamomile tea with a sweet, flaky cookie such as an orejita.  Orejitas are also known as palmiers. They are called orejitas (“little ears”) in Mexico because they resemble the shape of elephant ears. They are flaky with a crispy coating of sugar and a very common type of pan dulce sold in Mexican panaderias.

Orejitas are very easy to make and only call for three ingredients. It’s a great afternoon tea treat for everyone, even kids because Tadin Chamomile Tea does not contain caffeine. Plus, they are great to enjoy after a meal or just during downtime right before bedtime. I find that it is the best flavor for everyone because it is so subtle and pleasant.

Skip the bakery and make your very own orejitas at home for a fraction of the cost. Check out the simple recipe below and enjoy!
