Instructies
 

  • Preheat the oven to 190 °C conventional or 170 °C convection oven.
  • Mix the ground chia- or flaxseed and hemp seeds with the orange juice and let stand for 10 minutes to swell. This is your chia or flax egg
    20 g ground chia seed or flaxseed, 50 g orange juice, 20 g hulled hemp seeds

    250 g flour, 2 g baking soda, 2 g salt

    20 g ground chia seed or flaxseed, 50 g orange juice, 20 g hulled hemp seeds, 1 orange, the zest, 100 g stem ginger shavings in syrup, 1 tl grated fresh ginger, 100 g granulated sugar
  • Stir or mix for 1 minute and then let it rest for 5 minutes. Then stir 1 more time.
  • Add the flour mixture and the butter mixture together and work everything through to a thick batter.
  • Using a small ice cream scoop or two tablespoons, scoop the batter into half balls on two baking trays lined with baking paper. Using the back of a wetted spoon, press the dough slightly flat. You can also roll the batter in plastic wrap into a sausage shape with a diameter of about 3 cm and put it in the refrigerator for an hour. Then you can cut the dough into 2 cm. slices and place them on the baking sheets.
  • Bake the cookies in the center of the oven, one plate at a time, for 10-14 minutes (unless you have a professional oven, then you can bake more at a time) until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Let the cookies cool and store in a cookie jar. For an extra finishing touch, dip them halfway in melted & tempered pure chocolate and let the chocolate set 30 minutes before storing (or eating) the cookies.

Notities

  1. Mixing the batter in intervals gives the sugar more of a chance to dissolve in the water of your chia or flax egg. This will make your cookie crispier.
  2. Baking soda, unlike baking powder, always needs an acid to react with. In this recipe, the acid comes from the orange juice.
  3. You can also store the dough rolled into a roll in plastic in the freezer. To use, place the dough roll in the refrigerator for about, 40 minutes and you can cut slices from it and bake fresh cookies.
