5. Bake at 325º in convection oven (350º in normal oven) for 8-10 minutes.
is there ANY way I can substitute extra virgin olive oil in the peanut butter cookie recipe for the recommended shortening or butter?
Substituting any oil for the butter will yield a cookie that won’t rise and be very flat. Also, you’ll lack that amazing butter flavor. I have successfully substituted maybe 1/4 or 1/3 of the butter with some oil in other cookie recipes but no more than that.
Hello,
* Macros available?
* Oats, “blended”~ ?
* substitutes for Sucanet?
Thanks!
Hello Dee,
Thanks for the questions. Are you asking the amounts of the macro nutrients in the recipe? We don’t have the exact macro nutrient count available and I don’t know specifically what you’re asking about, but there are websites you can go to in order to calculate the calorie and nutrients of any recipe by plugging in the ingredients. They’re not perfect, but it can give you an idea. One example is https://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp. You’ll be able to find an estimate of the information you’re looking for there. Oats blended just means that you put that amount of oats in a blender and blend them until they’re powdery. As for your third question, you can always substitute brown sugar for sucanat. I hope this answers your questions!
I only see 1 type of sugar listed…but you state : use sucanat for BOTH SUGAR’S…
Is there another ingredient not listed?
So looking forward to YUMMY healthy P>B> COOKIES with my Einkorn!
Thank you
Shannon
Hi Shannon, thank you for noticing that! I’ve fixed it. It calls for white and brown sugar, but for a healthier option you can substitute sucanat or coconut sugar for both.
Hi. Can you use honey instead of sugar?
Hi Cheri, for sweetness that would be fine, but not having done it, I don’t know what it would do to the texture, so you’d want to watch that.
