It seems like everyone has a sad story of opening the shiny blue tin of Danish Butter Cookies to find.. well, not cookies! Be it sewing supplies, random junk, or buttons, it’s funny how we all have a version of this cookie disappointment.
Anyway, don’t disappoint your pup: make them these pup butter cookies!
Oven: 350°F Baking time: 15-18 minutes
Ingredients
2 tablespoons unsalted butter or coconut oil, softened
1/3 cup coconut flour
2/3 cup oat flour (or your preferred flour, e.g. whole wheat)
cold water as needed
Optional: freeze dried blueberries
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Mix the coconut flour and oat flour together in a large bowl.
Add in the butter, then use your hands to “mash” the butter into the flour. Continue crumbling it together until you have a grainy, sand-like texture.
(Alternatively add the butter and flour into a food processor and pulse a few times.)
Add in cold water 2-3 tbsps at a time and knead until the dough sticks together. You should aim for a soft dough that’s just sturdy enough to roll out and cut into cookie shapes.
Shape cookies on a piece of parchment paper or floured surface to prevent sticking. If the dough is too crumbly, add a touch more water. If it’s too wet, add some more oat flour. You can’t mess up. :)
If you want to PIPE the cookies with piping tips, you’ll need to mix in more water, until it’s the consistency of a thick frosting.
Bake on a lined baking tray for 15-18 minutes until set and lightly golden.
