Olympic Olive Oil Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, beat sugar and oil until blended. Beat in the egg, then honey and lemon extract. Combine the flours, rosemary, lemon peel, baking soda and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Gradually add to sugar mixture; mix just until combined., Drop by tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle tops with remaining sea salt. Bake at 350° for 9-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• In a saucepan, heat oil, aniseed and sesame seeds over medium-low heat for 5 minutes.
• Cool.
• Add sugar, lemon juice, lemon and orange zest.
• Combine flour and cinnamon.
• Stir flour, 1 cup at a time, into oil mixture.
• Work dough with hands until smooth.
• Cover and let stand for 30 minutes.
• Roll dough out on lightly floured board to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
• Cut with a 2-inch round cookie cutter and place on ungreased cookie sheet.
• Decorate with almond slices, pressing so they adhere.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until light brown.
• Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and cool on racks.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, poppy seeds, salt, and 1/3 cup sugar) and whisk together.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs (or egg substitute) with the olive oil, lemon juice, and lemon rind.
• Use a rubber spatula to stir the liquid mixture into the dry one, just until well combined; if the mixture is a little dry, add a little more lemon juice.
• Put a few tablespoons of sugar in a flat dish.
• Pinch off pieces of dough (about the size of a rounded teaspoon) and roll gently into balls. Put balls into sugar and press down slightly to make a thick disk.
• Place sugared cookie disk onto a lightly oiled cookie sheet and bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned.
• Cool a couple of minutes on the cookie sheet, then remove the cookies to a rack to cool further.
• Note: Instead of eggs, use 2 tablespoons of ground flax seeds (i.e., flax meal) simmered in 6 tablespoons of water for a few minutes until thick and the consistency of raw eggs.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl and set aside.
• 2. Combine sugars, vanilla, and olive oil. Beat in the eggs one a time. Gradually beat in the flour mixture, then add in a tablespoon of milk to make the dough a bit firmer, maybe another tablespoon if you need it/if you feel the dough is too sticky/dry (I used about 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon).
• 3. Roll the dough into balls with your hands and place on a greased and/or lined baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, until lightly golden and set. Mine took about 10 and a half minutes. These overbake quickly, so it's better to take them out a bit early if you're unsure. Allow to cool for a bit on the baking sheet, then move to another surface to finish cooling.

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, granulated sugar, egg, honey, and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture, then cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Roll level teaspoons of dough into balls and coat in sanding sugar. Place on baking sheets lined with parchment, spaced about 2 inches apart. Refrigerate until firm, 15 minutes.
• Bake, rotating sheets once, until cookies are flattened and set around edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely on sheets. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.

Steps:

• drop onto ungreased cookie sheets and top each cookie with 2 or 3 m&m's.
