HEALTHY ANIMAL CRACKERS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F & line a baking tray with parchment paper.
• Add the melted coconut oil to a mixing bowl with the flours & nutmeg, mixing well.
• Add the rest of the ingredients & form a dough.
• Let the dough sit for 10 minutes, then roll out using two pieces of parchment paper & a rolling pin until your desired thickness. I like about 1/4th of an inch, but if you want thinner crackers you can roll it out thinner. Roll it out less for thicker crackers.
• You can use animal cracker cookie cutters (linked above) or if you don’t have these you can simply cut them into squares & they will be just as delicious.
• TIP: I like to regularly put a bit of coconut oil on the bottom of the cookie cutters (or a knife if cutting the dough) to prevent the dough from sticking to your utensils.
• Carefully place the crackers on the prepared baking tray & bake for about 5 minutes (the longer you bake the crunchier they will get).
• Let cool & store in an air sealed container, enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine first 5 ingredients in a bowl, stirring with a whisk until combined; set aside. Combine butter, sugar, and honey the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment; beat at medium speed 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg; beat until just combined. Add flour mixture a little at a time, beating until combined. Press dough into a flat disc; wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350°F. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface; roll to 1/4-inch-thickness. Cut the dough into shapes using miniature animal-shaped cookie cutters. Transfer cookies to 2 parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Bake cookies at 350°F for 7 to 8 minutes or until lightly golden brown, rotating pans halfway through baking. Cool 1 to 2 minutes on baking sheet; transfer cookies to wire wracks to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough scraps. Transfer cooled cookies to an airtight container.
