Almond Biscuits

Collection: Vegetarian Recipes

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup non-hydrogenated vegan margarine
  • 1 cup granulated vegan sugar
  • 1 egg substitute
  • 1 teaspoon almond essence
  • blanched almonds for decoration
  • egg substitute or vegan soymilk for glazing

Directions

Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Cream the margarine and vegan sugar together until light, white and fluffy. Beat in the
egg substitute and almond essence. Stir in the sifted dry ingredients to make a
stiff dough.

Form the mixture into balls about 1 - 1.5 inch diameter and place these
on a greased baking tray. Place half an almond (split lengthways) on
each ball and press to flatten slightly. Brush with beaten egg substitute or soy milk for glazing.

Bake in a moderate oven (350 deg F / 180 deg C) for 20 minutes or until
golden. Cool on a wire rack. This quantity makes about 45 biscuits.
