Today, we’re treating you to healthy cookies with festive Christmas flavours, completely guilt-free (well… as long as you don’t eat ALL of them! 😄).
No need to be a master baker to nail these little treats. Give them a go and send us your best photos!
Tips: use cookie cutters to shape your biscuits and make them even more irresistible! They’ll keep for 48 hours in an airtight container.
Cinnamon Biscuits
Ingredients:
150g flour of your choice
50g unsweetened apple sauce
50g honey
1 egg
2 tbsp milk
½ sachet baking powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
Method:
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and cinnamon.
Add the apple sauce, then the milk, honey and egg. Mix well.
Cover the bowl and leave the dough to rest in the fridge for 1 hour.
Preheat your oven to 150°C.
Roll out the dough to about 5mm thickness, then cut out your biscuits.
Place the biscuits on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for around 15 minutes, checking regularly.
Four-Spice Shortbreads
Ingredients:
10 tbsp ground almonds
2 tbsp flour
150g unsweetened apple sauce
3 tbsp honey
2 tsp quatre épices (four-spice blend)
Method:
Preheat your oven to 180°C.
Mix the ground almonds and flour together in a bowl.
Add the apple sauce, honey and spices and mix well. If the dough is too dry, add a little water.
Shape the dough into 8 small balls and flatten them slightly.
Place the biscuits on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for around 8 minutes, checking regularly. They shouldn’t brown — otherwise they’ll be too hard!
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before handling.
Christmas Cookies
Ingredients:
2 very ripe bananas
120g rolled oats
1 tsp cinnamon
Flaked almonds
1 tbsp honey
Method:
Preheat your oven to 180°C.
Mash the bananas in a mixing bowl.
Add the rolled oats, honey and cinnamon. Mix well.
On a baking tray lined with parchment paper, form 10 mounds of dough and flatten them.
Scatter flaked almonds over the top of the cookies.
Bake until the cookies are golden (around 15 minutes).
Enjoy, girls! 😄
