Trader Joe's Soft-Baked Sunflower Butter Cookies, 170g

Just as the sight of a beautiful, blossoming sunflower is enough to brighten anyone’s day, one bite of a TJ's Soft-Baked Sunflower Butter Cookie is enough to sweeten yours. It’s made from a base of earthy, nutty sunflower butter (it’s the first ingredient, in fact), to which TJ's supplier adds an assortment of gluten free flours and vegan sources of sweetness, including cane sugar, dates, and pear juice concentrate, as well as a generous amount of roasted sunflower seeds. They then bake them to a perfectly pleasing soft texture, which not only interacts wonderfully with the crunch of the seeds, but accentuates its interplay of sweet and savoury flavours, too.

Sized at about one or two bites, these Sunflower Butter Cookies make an excellent, peanut-free dessert for school lunches, a great mid-morning pick-me-up with a cup of coffee or tea, or even just an anytime indulgence. And in addition to being vegan, kosher (pareve), and gluten free, they also contain no soy, sesame, or tree nuts, making them great for allergen-conscious sharing.
