Sure! Here’s a recipe for orange cookies that doesn’t require butter:
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 2 tablespoons grated orange zest
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Additional sugar for rolling (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil and sugar. Stir until well combined.
- Add the egg to the mixture and beat until smooth.
- Stir in the orange juice and grated orange zest until well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. If desired, roll the dough balls in sugar for a slightly crunchy exterior.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
