About the Recipe

Simple ingredients, easy directions, and links for what I used. Enjoy! 

Ingredients

  • 1 stick of butter, room temp

  • 3 tbps sugar

  • 2 tbps honey or maple syrup

  • 1 tsp vanilla

  • 1 egg

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour

  • 1 cup white flour (all purpose flour)

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 1 tsp baking powder


Preparation

Step 1:

In a large bowl, add butter, sugar, honey, and cream with a hand or stand mixer. Add egg and vanilla and slowly beat.


Step 2:

In the same bowl, slowly add flour, cinnamon, and baking powder. Hand knead until combined.


Step 3:

Cover dough in wax paper or plastic wrap and refriderate for 30-45 mins. Easier to roll and cut when slightly cold!


Step 4:

Preheat oven to 350F. Flour the surface and roll out dough. I rolled mine a little less than 1/4 inch.


Step 5:

Use Animal Crackers Cutters to cut and shape dough. Any cookie cutter will work if you don't have the animal crackers cutters!


Step 6:

Bake at 350 for 8-10 mins. Let cool and serve. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator.
