This recipe uses no white sugar, no milk, no eggs, no butter..
Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
2.5 cups whole wheat flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground black pepper (optional) – I like it spicy
2 tsp cocoa powder
pinch of nutmeg
1/2 tsp of ginger powder
1/2 tsp of cardamom
1/3 cup of honey
1/3 cup of maple syrup
1/3 cup blue agave syrup
1 cup water
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tsp baking powder
Glazing:
Powdered Sugar
Egg white
lemon juice
Mix all spices with flours until well combined. Add olive oil, honey, syrups & water. Mix into hard sticky dough with paddle attachment. Refrigerate at least overnight for the spice flavors to combine..
Roll thin and cut shapes of your liking. For fast cutting into squares or diamonds I use pizza slicer. Bake at 350F/180C about 10-12 minutes.
For glazing mix up powdered sugar, lemon juice and egg white. Add enough powdered sugar to make a thick paste that holds it shape and does not run. Scoop into a pastry bag (or a zip-lock bag with one small corner cut off). Decorate cookies immediately after taking them out of the oven so the heat from the cookies settles the glazing fast.
Ingredients for 3-4 portions:
Slice the Tuscan kale and cabbage into thin slices. Chop the celery. Grate the apple and carrots. Mix all together with some salt, lemon juice and olive oil.
Enjoy with dinner or a meal of its own (as its quite filling). Optionally you can add some nuts on top for extra protein..
