Gluten free vegan coconut butter shortbread biscuits.

Hi everyone,

I've made friends with some vegans who live a few doors away and we had a bubble and would visit and have gf vegan cookies and her gf vegan cookies are amazing so I've been trying to make nicer vegan shortbread and this is my latest attempt, the irony is we dissolved our bubble when the new strain went rampant as we've got the stay safe message. So I'll just have to be a martyr and eat them myself...LOL

Here's the recipe: 250g plain GF flour, 200g coconut butter, 120g Demerara sugar 200ml coconut milk (enough to make a dough. I spread the mix in a ceramic baking tray and baked for 20mins on 170 and then 25 mins on 150 until cooked through.

I expect that I'll have to sample one or two with some afternoon tea later 😁 which seems very civilised to me.

They do look good, what is coconut butter please?. is it the same as coconut cream block? I’ve got some of that and the other ingredients, good to hear there are more vegans in the forest, I don’t know of any in my patch, apart from my daughter.

Hi there, its my mistake it is creamed coconut, it is great to have like minded neighbours that are gluten free and like baking too. 😊

[zube-UK in reply to Hidden]

Oh good, I’ve got all that, will try making those tempting bites. You are lucky with your like minded neighbours, indeed they are lucky too! 🌲🙂🌲

And me Hb, I’ve always wanted to try a very fresh coconut, would love to see them growing on trees, taste fresh coconut milk somewhere warm.🌴
