1
Place the spruce tips in a food processor and process them until they are finely chopped.

Add the flour, sugar, and salt and process in bursts until fully mixed.

While the dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 350F. When the dough has chilled, place it in the oven and bake until it is lightly golden, about 25-30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
