Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil, eggs, apple cider vinegar, and honey. Mix these ingredients well until they are fully combined.

In a separate bowl, mix together the sugar, salt, baking soda, and vanilla. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring to combine.

Slowly incorporate the all-purpose flour until the dough becomes soft and slightly sticky.

Step 2

Shape the Cookies

Once your dough is prepared, take a small amount and roll it into a ball, then flatten it slightly to form a cookie shape. Repeat this process for the remaining dough.

Place the cookies on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Prepare for Baking

Beat one egg yolk and use it to brush the tops of the cookies. This will give them a beautiful golden color when baked.

Sprinkle some additional sugar over the top of the cookies for added sweetness and texture.

Step 4

Bake the Cookies

Preheat your oven to 180-200 degrees Celsius (about 350-400 degrees Fahrenheit). Bake the cookies for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown.

Once baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack.

Serve your delicious honey cookies with a warm cup of wild rose tea for a delightful treat!

Servings

When it comes to serving these Honey Cookies, the possibilities are endless! Enjoy them warm from the oven, paired with a steaming cup of tea or coffee. 🫖☕ For a delightful afternoon snack, stack a few cookies on a plate and drizzle a bit of honey on top for an extra treat. Want to throw a cozy gathering? Arrange these cookies on a beautiful platter, and sprinkle some colorful edible flowers around for a stunning presentation! 🌸 Feeling adventurous? Try stuffing your cookies with a favorite spread, like nut butter or chocolate ganache, for a delightful surprise! Whatever way you choose to share them, these cookies will surely bring smiles all around. 😄✨

Variations

Want to cater to different dietary preferences? Here are some fantastic options! For a **gluten-free** version, simply swap regular flour for a gluten-free blend. Make sure to check that your other ingredients, like baking soda and vanilla, are also gluten-free! 🌾🚫 If you're looking for a **vegan** option, replace the eggs with 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana. Use vegetable oil and keep your honey for another recipe—try agave or maple syrup instead! 🥑🍯 Both variations are just as delicious and will still deliver that soft, buttery taste you’re looking for!

Faq

  • What can I substitute for eggs in this honey cookie recipe?

    You can use 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce or a mashed banana as a great egg replacement!

  • How can I tell when my cookies are done baking?

    Look for a golden brown color. They also should feel slightly firm to the touch but will continue to set as they cool.

  • Can I freeze these cookies for later?

    Yes! You can freeze the cookie dough or already-baked cookies. Just make sure to store them in an airtight container.

  • What is the best way to store leftover cookies?

    Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. They will stay fresh for about a week!

  • Can I add nuts or dried fruits to the cookie mix?

    Absolutely! Walnuts, almonds, or dried cranberries are fantastic additions that add texture and flavor.

  • How do I make these cookies softer?

    For soft cookies, ensure you don’t overbake them. Baking time depends on your oven but start checking a few minutes early!
