These are delicious fall cookies that are moist, yet light and fluffy! A light orange glaze on top adds a sweet and slightly citrus flavor.
Makes about 2 -2.5 dozen cookies
Ingredients for cookies:
1-1/4 cup flour
1-1/4 tsp baking soda
1-1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp cloves
1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 cup cooked and pureed sweet potato
1/4 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp orange juice
For icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
2-3 Tbsp orange juice
1/4 tsp vanilla
Preheat oven to 400F. Mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves by either sifting together and/or mixing well. In a separate bowl, mix together the other ingredients with a mixer. After the wet ingredients are thoroughly mixed, add the dry ingredients and gently stir well to evenly disperse. Spoon teaspoon size drops onto cookie sheet with parchment paper. Bake 12-15 min until golden brown. While cookies are baking, whisk together the icing and set aside. Remove cookies from oven and cool slightly, then transfer to a cool surface or cooling rack. Drizzle icing on top while warm and allow cookies to cool completely. Enjoy!
Flavorful home cooking with seasonal, organic and local produce
About the blog
We are fortunate enough to have a produce delivery service that delivers seasonal, organic and local produce year-round. Our weekly menu is based on whatever items we happen to get that week, which always changes. This inspires a lot of creativity and improvising in our daily meals. While I tend to spend a lot of time in the kitchen, to me it is a relaxing experience and worth the effort. I hope you enjoy the recipes posted which are influenced from a variety of cultures!
