Clean Christmas Cut out Cookies!! (thank goodness)
How many of us love the holiday tradition of the cutout cookies with children adding sprinkles, chocolate chips, and icing? But butter cookies in my house are just a NO GO! I mean, I will, with all my will power, suck down those puppies in a little over a day or two. My kids love them too, but this year I already found a way that is kid approved with no refined sugars, no gluten, and no dairy! You can even make them vegan if you do not want to use eggs. Oh yea!
Recipe:
1 cup oat flour (or any other gluten free blend)
1 tsp. baking powder
3 Tbsp. olive oil or coconut oil (melted)
1/4 cup raw/organic honey
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tsp. cinnamon (optional)
2 eggs (you can make flax eggs instead with 2 Tbsp. ground flax and 4 Tbsp warm water, let it sit for 10 minutes to get gelled)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl
3. If the dough is so wet it sticks to your fingers, knead in some extra flour, 1 Tbsp at a time until you have soft dough that doesn't stick. If it's too dry add extra oil
4. Roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness and cut with cookie cutters
5. Transfer to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper
6. Brush tops of cookies with egg wash (optional) This is just taking an egg or egg white and beating it
7. Bake for about 8-12 minutes or until the cookies have a nice golden glow
