- Sift the flour with baking powder and salt onto a work surface, add the butter in small pieces and crumble it in.
- Now make a well in the mixture and add the egg, sour cream, and vanilla sugar. Knead the mixture into a smooth dough.
- Then wrap in cling film and let rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Line a baking tray with baking paper and preheat the oven to approximately 160-180 °C (top/bottom heat).
- Flour a work surface, roll out the dough thinly and cut out squares measuring 5x5 cm.
- Starting at the corners, cut halfway through the squares. Place a teaspoon of jam in the center.
- Now lift the dough at the cut edges and bend it towards the center to create the shape of a windmill.
- Press the dough tips together slightly in the middle so that they don't open up during baking.
- Place the pinwheels on the baking sheet and bake for about 8 to 10 minutes until light golden, then sprinkle with powdered sugar while still hot.
