Halloween came softly and tasted a bit salty like homemade butter. It was mildly sweet like bitter honey and a smell of a coming Christmas was in the air.
It was a holy eve of Halloween. The lost souls were hiding from the cold weather, but in the kitchen of a warm home one could hear two voices. The clock spin one hour backwards, the night bloomed in many stars. The Universe was in peace.
Recipe for Pumpkin Halloween cookies:
200 g butter
2 dl raw cane sugar
8 dl whole grain flours or whole grain flour mixture
2½ tablespoon baking powder
1 dl coconut flakes
5 tablespoon cinnamon
5 tablespoon cardamom
A hint of salt
About 1 dl oat/rice or soy milk
On top homemade pumpkin jam:
About ¼ kg of pumpkin
2dl of brown sugar
About 2 dl of water
Hint of cinnamon
Half of lemon juice¨
Chop the pumpkins and leave them to boil with the sugar until they are soft. Smash them to make a paste and squeeze the lemon and add cinnamon.
Mix the sugar with soft butter and until the texture is slightly foamy.
Mix all dry ingredients together and add them slowly to the foam.
Last: add some milk until you can easily bake the dough with your hands.
Bake small stars, which are about ½ cm thigh.
Add about a teaspoon of pumpkin jam on top of the stars and decorate them with some coconut flakes.
Preheat the oven to 200C and bake the stars about 7minutes.
Last, add some sweet honey to finish the flavor.
Enjoy with love.
