Recipe: Green Pea Cookies

Updated: 9 Feb 21

Can't find green pea powder for the past few years. Hence made some.

Homemade green pea powder:

1. Defrost and dry frozen peas.
2. Spread peas on baking tray.
3. Bake at preheated oven 170C 40-45 minutes.
4. Set aside to cool.
5. Grind to fine powder.

*for 500g frozen peas, you will get +/-125g roasted peas.

*cookies baked from 'pure green pea powder' don't taste the same. My guess is, store bought green pea powder has other ingredients in it.

Ingredients:

• 130g green pea powder 
• 70g caster/icing sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt (used slightly less)
• 170g all purpose flour 
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder (used 100g self raising + 70g all purpose flour, omit baking powder)
• 100ml peanut/vege oil

Egg wash: 1/2 yolk + 1/4 tsp milk/water

Method:
*Into a bowl, add all ingredients, mix well.
*Scoop and weigh 8g dough.
*Roll/cut dough into desired shape.
*Coat with egg wash.
*Bake for 15-18 mins at 170 Celsius.
