Ingrediënten

▢ ¼ cup 64 g crunchy or creamy natural peanut butter
▢ ¼ cup 60 ml canola oil
▢ 4 teaspoons 32 g yeast extract spread, such as Marmite
▢ ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons 90 ml soy or other nondairy milk
▢ 1 teaspoon ground cumin
▢ 1½ cups 180 g light spelt flour
▢ ½ teaspoon baking powder

Instructies

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C, or gas mark 5).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat (such as Silpat).
In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, canola oil, yeast extract spread, soy milk, and ground cumin.
Mix until emulsified.
Sift the flour and baking powder into the wet ingredients and mix with a fork until just combined.
If the dough is too stiff, knead quickly to incorporate.
Shape the dough into a ball and roll it out to approximately ¼ inch (6 mm) thick.
Use a 3-inch (7 cm) round cookie cutter to cut out the cookies.
Continue cutting and rerolling the dough until it is all used.
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until golden brown on the bottom.
Let the cookies cool on a wire rack.
