With a shortbread feel and a cookie shape, these dairy-free delights are perfect for an after-dinner sweet with tea or coffee. These cookies also travel well in an airtight container for holiday traveling or dairy-free gifts.
Makes about 24 cookies
Ingredients:
- 2 cups oat or spelt flour (or gluten-free flour)
- 1 cup finely ground cashews
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/3 cup canola oil, olive oil or nut-based oil
- Fruit preserves or jam of choice
Method:
- Heat oven to 170ºC.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, ground cashews and salt.
- In a small bowl, whisk the oil and honey until well combined.
- Fold the wet ingredients into the dry until the mixture forms a dough that just holds together. (Dough should be drier than that of most cookie doughs but should not crumble.)
- Form into 2 inch balls and flatten slightly, making a small well in the center of the cookie with a teaspoon. Fill with jam or preserves of choice.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until cookies are golden brown.
