I'm asking! Deserts! Especially cookies and snack-type things. Those seem to be so hard to find vegan first, but lower fat especially.

I'll have to post a very good vegan cookie recipe I have. I'll make sure I post it once the kids take a nap.

Okay, here you go! - NB

Chocolate Chip Cookies

 

YIELD 32 LARGE COOKIES 64 SMALL COOKIES

Flatten out the scooped cookie dough well for crisper cookies.

 

DRY MIXTURE

all-purpose white flour 4 cups 500 grams

rolled oats 2 cups 196 grams

succanat 1 1/2 cups 252 grams

baking powder 2 tablespoons 31 grams

salt 1/2 teaspoon 3 grams

chocolate chips, semi-sweet, 1 1/2 cups 250 grams

dairy-free

walnuts, chopped 1 cup 100 grams

WET INGREDIENTS

firm silken tofu 5 ounces 140 grams

canola oil 3/4 cup 180 milliliters

maple syrup 1 1/2 cups 360 milliliters

vanilla extract 1 tablespoon 15 milliliters

 

In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients and push to one side of

the bowl. In food processor puree the silken tofu until very smooth,

then add the remaining wet ingredients to the processor and process

until smooth. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix

quickly and thoroughly.

 

Chill the dough for at least one hour.

 

Set oven to 350°F/180°C. On a baking sheet lined with parchment

paper, place 1/4 cup/56-gram pieces of cookie dough. Cover the sheet

with plastic wrap and flatten each cookie to about 3 inches/7.5

centimeters, carefully remove plastic wrap and save to use again.

 

Bake for about 11 minutes, or make smaller cookies and bake for

about 7 minutes. If the bottoms of the cookies seem to be browning

too fast try doubling the sheet pans.

 

Note: For a lower fat version replace up to one-half of the oil with

apple butter, prune puree or apple butter. The dry sweetener could

also be creamed together with the wet mixture.

In a large bowl combine the dry ingredients and push to one side of

the bowl. In food processor puree silken tofu until very smooth,

then add the remaining wet ingredients to the processor and process

until smooth. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry

ingredients and mix quickly and thoroughly. Chill the dough for at

least 1 hour.

 

Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C. On a baking sheet lined with

parchment paper place1/4|-cup/56-gram pieces of cookie dough. Cover

inches/7.5 centimeters, carefully remove plastic wrap and save to

use again.

cookies. If the bottom of the cookies seem to be browning too fast,

God's Peace,
