The cookies with seed oil are light, crunchy, and fragrant: they are made without butter, using seed oil that gives a delicate taste and perfect texture.
Ideal for breakfast or for a simple and genuine snack.
The cookies with seed oil are very simple treats that you can make without using cookie cutters or other molds.
Just roll the dough between your hands to create small balls.
I always prepare them plain, very basic, homemade, and genuine.
This time, I also added some colorful sprinkles, because I was expecting friends with children and I thought of making them more cheerful.

Tools

- 1 Mixing bowl
- 1 Fork
- 1 Baking tray
- 1 Mat silicone or parchment paper
Steps
Let’s see the simple steps to make them
In the bowl, arrange the flour and sifted baking powder into a well (making a hole in the center).
The first ingredients you will pour in the middle of the flour are the eggs with sugar and mix.
I use 1/4 cup of sugar because I don’t like to make my preparations too sweet, if you prefer, you can go up to 6 tablespoons of sugar.
Add the oil and grated lemon zest and continue to mix using the fork.
When the dough becomes too firm for the fork, proceed to knead with your hands.
Shape the dough into a ball and put it in the fridge for about half an hour. If you’re in a hurry, you can skip this step.
Then take the dough and break off small pieces to shape them into balls between your hands.
Once the ball is ready, roll it in the sprinkles and place it on the baking tray.
Preheat the oven to 340 degrees Fahrenheit with fan mode and proceed with baking.
It will take about 13 minutes. Depending on your oven it might take a few minutes less or a few minutes more.
Are you ready to taste them? These cookies with seed oil will be perfect for any break in your day.
They are the cookies I love to make the most for our daily routine, where taste and indulgence must never be lacking but nutritional awareness is also important.
How to Store Cookies with Seed Oil
Cookies with seed oil must be completely cooled before storing them, make sure they are cold and dry.
If they are even slightly warm, they will develop condensation and become soft.
Place the cookies in a tin box or a glass/plastic airtight container.
Tin boxes are ideal for maintaining crispness.
Airtight containers protect them from moisture.
