Wow butter cookies! Nut free peanut cookies

November 18, 2014 by Emma 9 Comments

The long stretch of horizon you can see from our house has seemed to blur into the sky today as the grey clouds merged with the mist hovering over the fields. There are lots of benefits of living rurally but days like this are not one of them. Days like this it can feel like you are living on the edge of nowhere in  a bleak bubble.

Our day was brightened by a visit from some friends, who braved the impending weather and trekked down our track from out of town. Jane is one of my best friends from university and she would always bake us scones on weekday afternoons and roast dinners on Sundays when other students were surviving on baked beans.

So, it was only right that I should serve up something ‘Wow’ for their visit. And I was duly reciprocated with an actual ‘Wow’ when I served them. Jane’s husband especially could not believe that they were fake nut, vegan cookies. I doubt your friends would either. These Wow Butter cookies really taste like the real thing.

This recipe is inspired by one in the Food Allergy Mama’s Baking Book

Ingredients (makes 24)

60g vegetable fat (We us Trex)

85g caster sugar

65g brown sugar

50g apple sauce

100g wow butter

75g wholemeal flour

85g plain flour

1/2 tsp baking powder

3/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda

Method

Use a wooden spoon to mix together the vegetable fat, sugars, apple sauce and wow butter until well combined.

Add in the flours, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda and mix to a dough.

Form mixture into small balls and place on baking tray. Press down gently on each one so they form a thick coin shape.

Bake in the oven on 180c for 15 mins.

    These look lovely and I am sure they would work with gluten-free flour. Since we don’t have a problem with peanuts (thankfully since Roo lives on peanut butter) I could make these with regular peanut butter. Yum!

      Wow butter is amazing! But I’m sure they would be great with almond paste too. Let me know how they turn out.
