Walnut Fennel Cookies (vegan & gluten-free)

December 11, 2019 By Hana 2 Comments

Walnut Fennel Cookies (vegan & gluten-free)

I’ve made these lovely Walnut Fennel Cookies last Christmas but didn’t get chance to post the recipe. I can hardly believe that another year is almost gone and what a ride this has been for me again!

I was thinking of decorating these before posting the recipe but have decided to just post them as they are in their own beauty and simplicity. The flavours speak for themselves and I think you will appreciate something simple and tummy-friendly to bake for Christmas.

I consider these cookies a foolproof recipe and I make these in many different flavour combinations. You can totally put your own spin on these, swap the ground nuts with almonds, hazelnuts or sunflower seeds; change the gluten-free flour combination and use different spices or herbs to your liking. I really love them with fennel, cinnamon, cardamom and a little ginger.

If you would like to decorate them you can just dust them with little sugar or ice them as you would your other cookies. If I’m doing icing with my son I tend to use some melted white chocolate instead of sugar icing.

Hope you love them :)

Sending much Love

Hana xx

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

White Yule Log from last year ❄️ Chocolate spo White Yule Log from last year ❄️ Chocolate sponge cake with white chocolate frosting, all gluten-free & vegan! You can find the recipe on my blog in the Christmas round up post for easy access.🎄

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted! But still pondering whether to make the gingerbread cheesecake. And just have written a new recipe for a lentil nut roast which I’m really looking forward to making on Christmas Day. 🎄

Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona has challenged me to create vegan, grain-free and nut-free chocolate recipe and so I took on the challenge with this layer cake. And I have finally experienced with cassava and tigernut flours, something I’ve been wanting to do for ages. If you fancy some grain-free baking check out the recipe on the blog. 😉

Have a wonderful weekend beautiful! ✨
