Vegan Sablé

Step 1

Place the vegan butter at room temperature, sugar and pure vanilla extract in a bowl. Beat with a hand mixer or in a stand mixer for a couple of minutes until fluffy.

Step 2

Add the almond flour and all purpose flour to the bowl.

Step 3

Use a spatula to mix the ingredients until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a ball, wrap tightly in cling wrap or place in an airtight container, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit/180 degrees Celsius.

Step 5

Dust the surface you will roll the cookie dough on and the rolling pin with powdered sugar. Roll out the chilled dough to a thickness of ¼th of an inch. Be gentle because this a delicate dough and move it around as you roll to ensure it doesn't stick. Dust with more powdered sugar if necessary.

Step 6

Use a fluted cookie cutter (a round cutter will work just as well) to cut out cookies. Place them an inch apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.

Step 7

Sprinkle the tops of the cookies with sugar, then bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are very lightly golden. Let the sablé cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack and let them cool thoroughly before eating.
