These little vegan thumbprints are absolutely delicious. I seem to make them quite often due to regular requests from my fiance's coworkers. Not a single one of them is vegan, but they have taken a serious liking to these little gems of semolina, coconut and guava. I think they have tea time in the afternoon-green tea and cookies! Oh, and if you are chocolate lover, just stuff them with a dark, vegan chocolate instead of guava.
1 1/2 cups semolina flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup light brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 cup of sweetened flaked coconut
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup canola oil
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon real vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon orange blossom water (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flours, baking powder, salt in a bowl & mix well. In a separate bowl, place oil, sugar, water, extracts & mix well. Slowly sift dry mixture into the wet mixture. Do not over mix. Now gently the mix the coconut into the dough. Roll quarter size balls out of mixture & place on parchment paper/baking pan. Once lined up properly, use your thumb to push a space into the ball. Place a bit of guava jelly into the space. Bake for 10 minutes at 350. Allow to rest 5 min. before eating. Enjoy!
