Once finished, set aside and do the same with the remaining bricks leaves. Once all the briouates are shaped, heat the oven to 180 ° C. Meanwhile, brush them with melted butter on all sides then place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake for about 20 minutes and when they are golden brown, turn them over and leave for a few more minutes.
Remove them from the oven and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove the excess butter. Serve immediately with lemon!
