Recipe
Ingredients
- ½ cup solid coconut oil
- 1 ¼ cups coconut sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla paste
- ¼ cup plus 3 tsp coconut milk (nice & thick, usually from a can)
- ¼ cup homemade apple purée (recipe below or 100 per cent apple purée baby food also works)
- 2 cups plain gluten-free flour
- ⅔ cup Pana Organic 100 Per Cent Cacao Powder
- 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- ½ tsp salt
- ⅔ cup Pana Organic Dark Chocolate Pieces
- ⅔ cup Pana Organic Caramel Chocolate Pieces
- ⅔ cup Pana Organic Mylk Chocolate Pieces
- Apple Purée
- 4 medium large apples, peeled & cored then chopped roughly
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp apple-cider vinegar - To turn Pana Organic Quad Choc Cookies into ice-cream sandwiches, you’ll need:
- Extra Pana pieces, to garnish
- Flaked sea salt, to sprinkle (optional)
- Pana Organic Salted Caramel Frozen Dessert
- Pana Organic Hazelnut Chocolate Spread
Method
- Preheat oven to 180ºC conventional.
- Using a stand mixer or hand beater, cream the coconut oil, coconut sugar, vanilla paste and 3 tsp coconut milk together until creamy. This will take up to 10 mins. Scrape the sides down regularly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
- Once nice and creamy, add in the rest of the coconut milk (¼ cup).
- Make the apple purée by adding chopped apples to saucepan with 1/3 cup water (more may be needed depending on the water content of the apples), maple syrup and cinnamon.
- Cook over medium heat with the lid on but stirring occasionally, until apples are soft.
- Purée with a stick blender then add in apple-cider vinegar.
- Add ¼ cup of apple purée to coconut mix (reserve the remaining apple purée for another dessert). Beat well until nice and smooth.
- In another bowl, combine the plain gluten-free flour, the Pana 100 Per Cent Cacao Powder, bicarb of soda and the salt. Use a whisk to stir together.
- Add the dry ingredients into the coconut mixture and mix to combine. The mixture should be firm. If not, add a little more flour.
- Sprinkle in the Pana Organic Pieces and fold to combine.
- Using a tsp, scoop out approximately 30 spoonfuls and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Keep the balls rough (don’t smooth out with hands). Squash down with a fork.
- Bake between 10-15 mins depending on how firm you like your cookies.
- When done, remove from the oven. They will still be soft and you may need to squash them down a little more with a fork. To make them truly instagrammable, use extra Pana pieces and press into the top and the side of the cookies. Then sprinkle with a little flaked salt.
- Cool on the tray for at least 15 mins.
- To turn Pana Organic Quad Choc Cookies into ice-cream sandwiches, sandwich a scoop of Pana Organic Salted Caramel Frozen Dessert between two of your Pana Organic Quad Choc Cookies. Then dip in Pana Organic Hazelnut Chocolate Spread and enjoy.
- Note: Cookies can be frozen
