Kids Glutenzone

I love baking and cooking with my little lady. She loves making cakes and cookies just like any other seven year old. She also loves taking her creations to school to share with her friends and none of them know it is dairy and gluten free!!

Here's a simple recipe for spiced cookies but you can use anything, chocolate chips, peanut better, whatever you enjoy.

Recipe:
225g olive oil spread (you can use butter if you don't need dairy free, it does give the cookies more of a crunch)
1 egg
170g brown suagr
280g self raising flour (we use the Aldi one only €1.89!!)
1 tsp vanilla extract or seeds from a fresh vanilla pod
Dessert spoon of grounded mixed spice

Heat oven to 180 degrees.

Line baking sheets.

Add all ingredients into a blender and mix until made into a large ball.

With a spoon make small balls and place on baking tray (make sure mixture is not too wet, if this is the case add some more flour, but remember not to dry it out as gluten free baking all mixtures will be more wet than regular baking).

Place in oven and cook for 15 minutes or until lightly brown.

Leave out to cool before removing from baking tray.
