Vegan Sunflower Butter Cookies

I was introduced to Sunflower Butter
 at work and now I must admit friends, I’m hooked.
My boss, Nancy is allergic to nuts and eggs, poor thing, and one day at work I spied her eating a spoonful of what I thought was peanut butter. It looked and smelled similar but nope it was SunButter!
It’s her favorite indulgence and after baking these moist and delicious cookies I have to say it’s a favorite of mine now too!
Nancy celebrated her bday today so I decided to make her
Vegan Sunflower Butter Cookies as a gift.
Can’t find Sunflower Butter or just prefer good ol’ peanut butter? No prob- just substitute creamy PB and these cookies will taste just as fantastic!
Vegan Sunflower Butter Cookies
Ingredients:
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup sunflower seed butter
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon molasses
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons canola oil
• 2 tablespoons water
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F
2. Sift together the ingredients from flour through salt.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the sunflower butter and all other ingredients and whisk well. Add to the dry ingredients and mix.
4. Spoon the batter with a small ice cream scoop onto a baking pan lined with parchment paper or a Silpat.
5. Bake for 12 minutes, until golden on the bottom.
6. After they rest on the sheet for a couple minutes, remove to a cooling rack.

    Hi, Nicole,
    Wow what a great co-worker you are! Since I blog for SunButter, of course I appreciate the post. But as a fellow cookie-baker, I love this recipe–the little bit of molasses intrigues me enough to get out the mixing bowl. Enjoying your blog. Take care!

🍳 How fun is this April Fool's Day breakfast egg prank?! My kids love all the silly tricks we do on April 1st so this year I thought of a new one to really fool them. I served "sunny side up eggs" for breakfast, two different ways! Check out the details on the blog. 😂😂😂

Time to be transparent. I have been struggling for a while now. I feel like I lost myself years ago. Self worth is so important and I am just now starting to love and focus on me again. I am not striving to be perfect but I am so excited to be a healthier, happier me this year.

Sundays are for brunchin' 🍳 🥓 
My girls and I had a delicious meal at the one of a kind @wellmetcafe . Standouts were the Tokyo Fog drink with yuzu and boba which tasted like Fruit Loops and the amazing Onyx bacon and soft scrambled eggs with creme fraiche. 
Next time I can't wait to try the avocado toast and the Taking Back Sunday chicken sandwich. 🥑

One of my favorite quiet spots in all of Missouri - beautiful Roubidoux Springs in Waynesville, MO. We spent so many afternoons here fishing, splashing, hunting for treasures, skipping rocks, having picnics, and cuddling our dogs. I loved being able to visit again yesterday and enjoy the serene environment and warm sunshine. A must see! ☀️
