Nürnberger Lebkuchen Vegan And Fat Free Recipes

GERMAN LEBKUCHEN

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat the egg, brown sugar and honey until smooth. Stir in the molasses. Combine the flour, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and allspice; stir into the molasses mixture. Stir in the almonds and candied fruit peel. Cover or wrap dough, and chill overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/4 inch in thickness. Cut into 2x3 inch rectangles. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart onto cookie sheets.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until firm. While still warm, brush the cookies with the lemon glaze.
• To make the glaze: In a small bowl, stir together the egg white, lemon juice and lemon zest. Mix in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Brush over cookies.

AUTHENTIC GERMAN LEBKUCHEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and arrange backoblaten (German baking wafers) on top, leaving a 1-inch space between them.
• Combine almond flour, sugar, eggs, ground hazelnuts, candied lemon and orange peel, ground cinnamon, vanilla sugar, and ground cloves and mix into a firm dough.
• Shape mixture into balls. Arrange balls on the prepared wafers; press gently to flatten into 1/2-inch-high rounds.
• Bake in the preheated oven until light brown in color, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• Place chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Cover the top of each lebkuchen with chocolate.

Steps:

• Mix honey, sugar, eggbeater, lemon juice and rind. Blend dry ingredients separately.
• Stir the wet into the dry. Chill overnight.
• When ready to cook, heat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Roll out a small amount of dough at a time to a 1/4 " thick log. Cut into 2" rounds.
• Place each cookie round on a nonstick cookie sheet, and place a slivered almond in the center if desired.
• Bake about 12 minutes, or until set.
• Immediately brush with glazing icing, if desired:
• boil sugar and water until the first indication of a 'thread' appears as it thickens (around 230 degrees).
• Remove from heat and stir in the powdered sugar. Bush this lightly over the cookies (when the icing gets sugary, reheat slightly, adding a little water until clear again).

HEALTHY VEGAN BROWNIES(FAT FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8×8 inch baking pan.
• In a medium sized bowl, stir together the sugar, applesauce, and 2 tablespoons of water.
• In a small bowl or food processor, combine the ground flax seed with the 1/4 cup coffee and 1/4 cup water. Add this to the applesauce mixture, along with the vanilla and stir to combine.
• In a separate small bowl, combine the flours, cocoa, baking powder, salt, chocolate chips, and nuts (if using). Add to the applesauce mixture and stir to combine.
• Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 20-28 minutes, depending on if you like your brownies moist or cakey. Remove from the oven, add the icing on top, allow to cool, and then cut.
