How to Make Healthier Homemade Oreos ๐
Ingredients
For the Chocolate Cookies:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar or maple sugar
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Creamy Filling:
- 1/4 cup coconut butter
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Make the Cookie Dough:
In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, and salt.
- Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir until a dough forms.
- Divide the dough into two portions and roll each portion between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/8-inch thickness.
- Use a round cookie cutter (about 2 inches in diameter) to cut out the cookies. Re-roll the scraps and cut out more cookies until all the dough is used.
2. Bake the Cookies:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the cut-out cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until firm.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
3. Prepare the Creamy Filling:
In a small bowl, mix together the coconut butter, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
- Let the filling thicken slightly at room temperature or refrigerate for a few minutes if it’s too runny.
4. Assemble the Oreos:
Spread a small amount of the creamy filling onto the flat side of one cookie.
- Place another cookie on top to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies.
- Allow the filling to set for a few minutes before serving.
5. Serve and Enjoy:
Enjoy these healthier homemade Oreos with a glass of almond milk or your favorite dairy-free milk!
