Pea flour cookies

Posted by Bake Club on Thursday, April 16, 2020, In : cookies 

You can make cookies from any flour, really. Yellow pea flour makes a wholesome cookie and the molasses gives them a dark brown caramelly chewiness. The dough is quite soft and sticky so best to refrigerate for an hour before shaping. Thanks Ginny for her flour leftovers!

Makes around 20
Mix all the wet ingredients in a bowl:
2 tbsp flaxmeal mixed with 3 tbsp water
1 tbsp molasses
2 tbsp maple syrup (or rice syrup or honey)
1/3 c coconut sugar (or brown)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 c vegetable or rice...

Gingerbread cookies

Posted by Bake Club on Wednesday, December 18, 2019, In : cookies 

Even though I'm not a Christmassy person, I do like to make gingerbread and have a go at icing. I don't have much flair, as you can see, but the biscuits taste fine anyway.

3 c flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
pinch sea salt
1 1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp allspice (or 1/2 tsp each cloves, nutmeg)
250g butter at room temperature
1 1/4 c brown sugar
1 egg
2 tbsp molasses
1 tbsp freshly grated ginger

Royal icing:
1 egg white
250 g icing sugar
1 tsp lemon juice

Sift the dry...

Vegan gingernuts

Posted by Bake Club on Tuesday, February 19, 2019, In : cookies 

I've made a few gingernuts in my time but I wanted to use molasses in these ones to add a depth of flavour. I also think to get the best crispiness in a biscuit you need to cream your butter and sugar first. Vegan butter and unrefined sugar work just as well as your bog-standard alternative, and are much healthier of course.

Makes 24
60g dairy-free spread (I used Olivani)
3/4 c coconut or brown sugar
1/4 c molasses
1/2 tsp vanilla extract, optional
2 c flour (I used spelt)
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking...

Gingerbread

Posted by Bake Club on Wednesday, January 13, 2016, In : small cakes 

The Moosewood Cookbook was one of the first vegetarian books I ever bought when I stopped eating meat. It was a revelation. I've never had the pleasure of going to their restaurant ... yet. This is their gingerbread recipe which they love because it has easy cup or half-cup measurements. DItto for me. Although I did find it a bit molassesy; I'll use less next time. I indulged the top with cream cheese lemony icing.
2 eggs
1/2 c sour cream (I used yoghurt)
1/2 c molasses (I'd use 1/4 or 1/3)
1/2 c...
