Vegan Pecan Butter Cookies
 
 
Hazel & Cacao:
Ingredients
  • 1¼ cup almond meal
  • ¼ cup oats
  • ⅛ tsp baking powder
  • ½ cup pecan butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 TBSP maple syrup
  • 2½ TBSP coconut oil
  • pecans to decorate
Method
  1. Begin by making your pecan butter. Roast pecans at 180 C for 10 minutes. Process in food processor for a few minutes until they turn into a butter, transfer to a jar and set aside. I make a big batch and store the rest in the fridge.
  2. Add all your ingredients into one big bowl. I like to add the dry ingredients first and then add the coconut oil and maple syrup and pecan butter last.
  3. Mix well until a cookie dough is formed
  4. Create cookie shapes by rolling heaped TBSP amounts into a ball and then pressing them down with your fingers until they form a cookie shape. Press 1 pecan into the top of each cookie
  5. Bake on a lightly greased or lined baking tray for 10 - 12 minutes at 170 C.
  6. Makes about 12 cookies in total
