Orange & Vanilla Cookies

Orange & Vanilla Cookies
Urgent Cookie Craving! So I baked these. Plenty to cure cravings for a week, as it makes about 60 small to medium cookies 😉
Prepared by:
Cuisine: vegan
Recipe type: cookies
Serves: 60
Prep time: 
Cook/wait time: 
Total time: 
You need
  • 2 cups of (spelt) flour
  • ½ cup of melted coconut oil (I used deodorized oil)
  • ¾ coconut palm sugar
  • a pinch of salt
  • zest of 2 oranges
  • 2 tsp vanilla paste
  • 1 tbsp molasses
  • 1 tsp of baking powder (aluminium free)
To do
  1. mix dry ingredients
  2. mix liquid ingredients
  3. slowly add liquid mixture to dry mixture, stirring it in with a wooden spoon
  4. it's quite OK for it to be crumbly as long as it is nicely mixed and you can form balls out of the dough
  5. pre-heat oven to 160-170C and place baking paper on oven tray
  6. take a small hand of dough and press it together, then flatten it and either transfer to baking tray, or use a cookie cutter for nice shapes
  7. place tray in oven and bake for no more than 12 minutes (they will harden up once out of the oven)
  8. after a few minutes, transfer to a rack to cool down further
