Method
1️⃣ Prepare the mixture:
In a large bowl, beat the egg with the icing sugar until the mixture is light and smooth.
2️⃣ Add the oil:
Pour little by little, incorporate the oil while stirring with a whisk or spoon.
3️⃣ Flavor:
Add the lemon zest and juice, stirring well to combine the liquid ingredients.
4️⃣ Sift the dry ingredients:
Sift the flour and baking powder directly into the bowl, adding a pinch of salt.
5️⃣ Mix the dough:
Gently mix with a spoon until the mixture is smooth and soft, but not sticky.
6️⃣ Rest in the refrigerator:
Cover the bowl with cling film or a damp cloth and leave to rest in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes. This will make the dough easier to work with.

With slightly damp hands, form balls of dough and roll them in icing sugar. Arrange them on the baking tray, leaving space between them.
