SO HOW'D IT GO?
I chose this pb cookie recipe because I was out of EB and didn't have time to go to the store...
I followed the recipe pretty closely, but I used white flour instead of wheat pastry flour...and I added a little applesauce for some more moisture....but they still came out pretty dry....good flavor, just not moist enough (ugh, I hate that word)
These *just* came out of the oven and I must say - they are FANTASTIC. My modifications were:
- I used 1/4 cup cashew nut butter and 1/4 cup almond butter as sub for pb
- added 1/4 cup of cane sugar, decreased maple syrup to 1/4 cup
- used 2 tsp vanilla
- used a generous amount of Himalayan sea salt (because I love that salty/sweet combo in my nut butter cookies)
Just... just wow. I mean, the texture *is* different from other margarine/coconut oil based cookies, but that is not at all a bad thing when you factor in how yummy they are.
Thanks for the recipe ^^
Yum! Doubled the recipe, used half white/half whole wheat flour, 1/3 cup sunflower oil, some baking soda, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and half a ripe banana. Great no-margarine peanut butter cookie. The texture was a little different, but did not offend my nor my omni brother and omni boyfriend's palates. Happy all round. :D
