Without BUTTER! The cookies melt in your mouth!Specifications for the Cookies.
Ingredients
(About 30-35 Pieces):
- 2 eggs
- 80 g powdered sugar
- 8 g vanilla sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 60 ml oil (sunflower or rapeseed oil)
- 2 tablespoons of peach jam
- 2 tablespoons of corn kernels (for texture)
- 5 g baking powder
- 320 g flour
Instructions
1. Prepare the Dough:
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with powdered sugar, vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy. This will help create a light texture for your cookies.• Add the oil (you can use sunflower oil, rapeseed oil, or any mild-flavored oil you prefer). Whisk until fully incorporated.
Stir in the peach jam and corn kernels, mixing gently. The jam adds a subtle fruity sweetness, and the corn kernels give a pleasant crunch and surprise texture that contrasts beautifully with the soft cookie dough.
2. Add Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until you have a smooth, slightly sticky dough. The dough will be soft but still manageable.
3. Shape the Cookies:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Take small portions of the dough (about a teaspoon) and roll them into little balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them a few centimeters apart, as the cookies will spread slightly while baking.
If you like, you can gently flatten the balls of dough with your fingers or the back of a spoon to create a more uniform shape.
4. Bake the Cookies:
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until they are lightly golden around the edges. The cookies will remain soft even after they cool, so don’t worry if they feel a bit soft when you first take them out of the oven.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, and then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
Once cooled, these butterless cookies are ready to be enjoyed! Their delicate texture and subtle sweetness make them perfect for pairing with a cup of tea or coffee. They also make a great snack for kids or anyone looking for a light, not-too-sweet treat.
