Instructions

1. Beat vegan butter and sugar in a stand mixer until fluffy. Then add aquafaba and vanilla extract. Mix until aquafaba is incorporated.
2. Now add flour and salt. Continue mixing until the dough has crumbly consistency.
3. Divide the dough in two using kitchen scales. Add one part of the dough together with orange zest back into the mixing bowl. Mix until orange zest is incorporated. Then fold in chopped almonds.
4. Form a dough ball and then roll it into a 1 1/2 inch thick log. Wrap the dough in a cling film and place in a fridge for couple of hours or overnight.
5. Now mix second part of the dough with cinnamon and then fold in chopped walnuts. Again form a dough ball and roll it into the same size log as almond orange one. Wrap in a cling film and place in the fridge.
6. Preheat oven to 180°C (355°F).
7. Take the dough out of the fridge and let it sit for few minutes on a counter if it’s too hard.
8. Using a sharp knife, slice each dough log into about 1/3 inch thick cookies. Place the cookies onto a lined baking sheet leaving enough space between each one.
9. Bake cookies for 12-15 minutes or until the edges just begin to turn golden.
10. Transfer the cookies onto a cooling rack and let them cool down completely before serving.
