How to Make Nrnberger Lebkuchen Vegan And Fat Free

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the applesauce, maple syrup, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Stir in the chopped nuts and candied fruit.
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the Lebkuchen cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, you can dust them with powdered sugar (optional).
