Рецепт book review: Happy Healthy Vegan Kitchen // recipe + giveaway
I remember the very first time I came across Kathy's amazing blog, I was researching Macro Bowls and her gorgeous vegan macro bowl was among the search. I clearly remember how gorgeous the photos were and it was the first time that tempeh ever looked tempting.
Kathy has this warmth that just exudes from every post she writes, this warmth and happy living is also super evident in her latest vegan cook book - Healthy Happy Vegan Kitchen. This cookbook is for everyone, however she has an amazing section in the book that focuses on Kitchen Tools + a Vegan Pantry, along with some pretty awesome wellness tips. When I first started in the Kitchen I always found these sections to be incredibly useful.
I knew instantly what recipe to share the minute I saw it. I mean, who doesn't love cookies!
However her new book offers so much more than just cookies - however I would totally be OK if she came out with a "HHVK 250 Cookies + Bars" cookbook!
Kathy breaks her book down by sections // breakfast (which starts the chapter off with a tofu scramble, umm YES!), bakery, sandwiches, a whole chapter on BURGERS!and so on.
The ingredients for these cookies are super simple and they come together in a flash. They also have the added bonus of being gluten free + peanut free.
The recipe states you can store leftovers in the fridge or freezer, when I read that I had to laugh....these cookies lasted about 2 hours in our house- trust me you won't have any leftovers, these cookies will disappear faster than you know it.
Not only is Kathy allowing me to share with you this amazing recipe but also a giveaway!!!

These jam-filled gems are simple and sweet, gluten - free and cute on a plate
serves 8
you will need:
- 3/4 cup homemade oat flour (from rolled oats)
- 1/2 cup vegan sugar or coconut sugar
- 2 1/2 tablespoons almond butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons virgin coconut oil, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of sea salt
- Pinch of baking soda
- 2 tablespoons fruit jam, any flavor
assembly:
Preheat oven to 400*F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, combine all the ingredients, except jam, until a soft dough forms.
Bake the chilled cookies until they are rounded and lightly puffed and darkened around the edges, 8 - 10 minutes.
NOTE: If the dough is too soft to work with, place it in the fridge a few minutes to firm up a bit
FOLD - INS: use slightly chilled fold-ins like nuts are chocolate chips- this helps firm up the dough a bit faster
FLOURS: If desired, replace the wheat flour with oat flour or an all-purpose gluten-free flour blend. The cookie texture will vary a bit.
