Sesame cookies & new cookie cutters
We've been on a cookie binge for the past week or two, & it felt like it was time to buy some cutters. Circle cookies are fine, but I had a dinosaur shaped hole in my soul that could only be filled with the appropriately shaped cookie.
Today that space was filled, & if you sense the same void within yourself, then give this recipe a try...
Sesame cookies~
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup of (gluten-free) Plain flour
- 1/2 Cup of Sugar
- A Pinch of Salt
- 1/2 tsp of Baking powder
- 1/4 Cup of Sesame seeds
- 4 tbs of Vegan Milk (Soy, Almond, etc)
- 4-6 tbs of Vegan Margarine (Nuttelex, etc)
Method:
1. Line a baking tray with baking paper, & set aside.
2. Pre-heat your oven to 180ºC (356ºF).
3. Combine the dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl, & stir or whisk until well mixed.
4. Add a few tablespoons of the margarine & mix into the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon until no lumps remain.
5. Add the vegan milk, & mix well. Then, gradually add margarine until a stiff cookie dough consistency is reached. (The dough should be quite firm, similar to play dough)
6. Once the dough is ready, flatten it out (approx 5mm thick) onto a non-stick surface, & cut shapes out using cookie cutters, then place them onto the baking tray.
(If you don't have cutters, don't be distressed! An easy way to make cookies by hand is to form balls from the dough, place them onto the baking tray, & then gently flatten them using your fingers)
7. Bake for 21 minutes. Once baked, allow them to cool, & enjoy :)
Makes 12 cookies.
More cookies to come! I can't say exactly when, but I have ideas, delicious ideas :)
