Grain Free Ginger Snaps

by | Apr 26, 2016 | Snacks, Sweet Treats | 0 comments

I love anything with ginger. In fact, I just love anything you can serve with a hot cup of tea!

These ginger snaps have the perfect * snap * and are absolutely delicious especially on a wintery day served with your favourite hot drink.

Ingredients

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons coconut sugar

2 tablespoons butter or ghee

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup arrowroot powder

1 tablespoon coconut flour

2 teaspoons ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

 

 

 

Method

Preheat oven to 180 degrees C.

Heat the honey in a saucepan over medium-high heat.

Once it starts to bubble, reduce to low and simmer for 5 minutes, until it turns a dark amber colour.

Add the coconut sugar and continue to simmer for 2 mins. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla extract.

Combine the remaining ingredients in the bowl of a food processor. Process for 1 minute, until everything is very finely ground.

Pour in the melted ingredients and process again for 30 seconds, until a ball of dough forms.

Form the dough into a ball with your hands, then roll it out to 1/4-inch thickness between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Use cookie cutters to cut shapes of the dough, then peel away the remaining dough.

Transfer the bottom sheet of parchment with the cookies to a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, until browned and crisp around the edges.

Cool completely on wire racks before eating.

Vegan Fudgy Choc Chip Blondies

Blondie bars often pop up on my social media feeds, but either they aren’t popular in South Africa or some how I have been missing out on these beauties for years! Blonde moment, but I admit I had to ask google why these gooey, fudgy bars are in fact called Blondies....

Vegan Chocolate Cake with frosting

  A vegan cake that tastes just like a traditional rich chocolate cake? Huh! Never! There's no way, right? Well, I was wrong. I'd choose this cake over any cake on a dessert table. And I can guarantee you that no-one would even notice that it was a wheat-free,...
