Vanillekipferl Recipe

Vanillekipferl (vanilla crescent cookies) are tender, nutty, and sweet, flavored with almond flour and dusted liberally with powdered sugar, perfect for the holidays - this time, with a vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar-free makeover!
Ingredients
- 70 g almond flour
- 80 g gluten-free all-purpose flour ((see notes))
- 1 Pinch of salt
- 80 g almond butter
- 100 g Medjool dates (pitted and soaked in hot water for 20 minutes)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Powdered Erythritol (or (vanilla) icing sugar)
Instructions
- 1
I recommend using metric measurements (grams). Check the video for visual instructions.
- 2
Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend for about 10-20 seconds, or until combined.
- 3
Wrap the dough in cling film and transfer it to the fridge to chill for about 1 hour.
- 4
Preheat the oven to 356° F (180° C) and line a cookie sheet or baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 5
Divide the dough into 2 pieces and roll each piece into a thick rope, about 1 1/2-2 inches (4-5 cm) in diameter.
- 6
Cut each rope into 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) thick slices and roll each slice into a small rope (refer to video). Then, bend both ends together to form a C-shape.

Transfer the cookies to the lined sheet and bake for about 10-12 minutes.

Let the cookies cool completely, dust them with powdered Erythritol (or icing sugar or powdered vanilla sugar), then enjoy!
