The perfect savory treat to impress your guests


If you’re looking for a simple, elegant and make-ahead festive snacks, these Parmesan Shortbreads with Fennel and Chilli are exactly the recipe to keep up your sleeve. They come together in minutes in the Thermomix, bake beautifully, and taste delicious.



Crisp, buttery and full of savoury Parmesan flavour, they’re a brilliant addition to your Christmas hosting plans.


Why you’ll love them:


• Make-ahead friendly: Freeze the dough in a log, then simply slice and bake when needed


• Minimal Ingredients: Just butter, flour, Parmesan and seasoning


• Budget-friendly: Onions, vinegar, sugar — that's pretty much it!


• Effortless in the Thermomix: Everything mixed in seconds


My Cooking Tips


  • Use your parmesan rinds for extra flavour and zero food waste – the Thermomix blitzes them perfectly


  • If fennel and chilli aren’t your thing, swap for black pepper, rosemary, thyme or sesame seeds


  • When freezing the dough, don’t forget to label and date it


  • Slice the log into even rounds to ensure the biscuits bake evenly
