I started off December with some baking yesterday, and these cookies were a complete hit. They turned out better than I thought despite the fact I made up the recipe as I went along and made these just to use up left over ingredients in the pantry. They are... gluten-free cereal peanut butter cookies!
I used up the rest of my gluten-free corn flakes, some sorghum flakes and added a random gluten-free Weet-bix to play around with the consistency. I then dumped the remaining contents of my gluten-free self-raising flour mix (not even 3/4 of a cup) into the mix.
To bind it together, I used roughly 75mL of rice bran oil, 1/2 of sugar, and 1 egg.
To flavour it, I added a teaspoon of vanilla and 2 tablespoons of natural smooth peanut butter - because I thought it would make the right consistency.
And right it was! They turned out as puffed up mega crispy cookies (my mum likes crispy), they were sweet but not too much, and the texture was insane! It had chewy bits of corn flakes, and some bits in the middle were chewy (when it was warm) while being crispy on the outside.
It was a gluten-free and dairy-free recipe, but I think I could have omitted the egg if I wanted to make it vegan.
Just a bunch of cereals in a wet sloppy mixture! |
Home-made looking, decently sized cookies! |
Mask: Oats soaked in liquorice root tea + coconut oil + dash of vinegar + small egg white. |
It was a very runny mixture, but I only needed a thin layer on my face anyway. If it was thicker the oat bits might have slid off my face in chunks! |
Outfit of the day, for work! I am running out of Topshop clothes to wear to work... |
On the way to the bus stop, I came across this patch in the pathway. It smelled like roses or something, and had all these flower buds fallen onto the ground to create some floral layer. |
