NILLA APPLE CRISP



Nilla Apple Crisp image

I have made this apple crisp many times. Sometimes I switch out the vanilla wafers for ginger snaps or graham crackers. This recipe is supposed to make 12 - 1/2 cup servings. Who are they kidding, who is gonna eat just 1/2 cup? Not me, I want about 3 of those 1/2 cup servings. Actually, this recipe is designed to reduce the fat...

NILLA WAFERS



Nilla Wafers image

I don't think I'm alone in my ever-so-slight embarrassment about being a fan of the Nilla Wafer. They are like the frozen burritos of cookies: You don't particularly crave them, yet every time you're checking out at the grocery store, there they are. They get eaten. And not because they're the only things available; it's because they are sneakily delicious. This is a tried-and-true cookie icon, no matter what anyone says.

Yield makes 48

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 cups oat flour
1 cup vegan sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup melted refined coconut oil or canola oil
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Add the coconut oil, applesauce, and vanilla and stir with a rubber spatula until the dough is smooth.
  • Drop the dough by the teaspoonful onto the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Using the bottom of a measuring cup, gently press on each cookie to flatten it slightly. Bake for 5 minutes, rotate the pans, and bake for 4 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown. Let stand on the baking sheets for 15 minutes before serving.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h35m

Yield 80 to 90 1-inch wafers

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 2/3 cups (200 grams) cake flour
1 large egg plus 1 large egg white, at room temperature
3/4 cup (155 grams) sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 tablespoons vanilla extract (your favorite imitation vanilla works great)
1 teaspoon water
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Sift the cake flour onto a sheet of parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine the whole egg, egg white, sugar, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract and water in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until lightened in color and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • With the mixer running on low speed, slowly pour in the butter and oil. Increase the speed to high and beat for 30 seconds.
  • Turn off the machine and add all of the flour. Mix on low speed. Stop to scrape the bowl and whisk. Mix on low speed until the batter is smooth and thick.
  • Transfer the batter to an 18-inch (or larger) pastry bag fitted with a coupler and 1/2-inch round tip. Alternatively, use a gallon-size resealable plastic bag with a corner snipped off to make a 1/2-inch opening.
  • Pipe 5 quarter-size mounds of batter in 8 rows on each of the prepared baking sheets. You should have 80 mounds total. Pipe any extra batter into the empty spaces.
  • Bake, rotating and switching the positions of the baking sheets halfway through, until the edges of the wafers turn a deep golden brown, 14 to 15 minutes total.
  • Let the wafers cool completely on the baking sheets. They will crisp as they cool.
