Old Farmhouse Honey Cookies

My mom is graciously sharing her highly-coveted Honey Cookies recipe! These are a family favourite,
and fairly simple to make, with a couple of key ingredients that set them apart from the rest!

Harvest is one of my favourite parts of fall, including all the delicious food that comes along with it! Homemade soup, stew, fresh buns, pumpkin squares, apple cocktails, and the list goes on. While these honey cookies fit the fall lineup, we definitely indulge in them all year round (and I know you will too)!

The first magic ingredient is Skelton’s Farm Fresh honey. My parents raise bees on their acreage in Saskatchewan, and those bees produce the most magical honey. Of course, use what you have, but fresh, locally-produced honey is best. If you ever get a chance to swing by my parent’s gift shop in Middle Lake, be sure to pick some up! The second key ingredient is crushed Anise seed, which gives the cookies a very subtle licorice flavour.

You’ll Need:

  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup Farm Fresh Honey
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • One egg
  • 1 1/2 tsp of pure vanilla
  • 2 1/4 cup of flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp crushed anise seed
  • Turbinado sugar for rolling

  • In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Crush anise seed with a pestle and add to flour mixture.
  • Add dry to wet ingredients and stir until combined.

  • Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
  • Shape into balls and roll in turbinado sugar.

  • Bake for 10 minutes on a parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  • Makes approx. 24 cookies.

*Tip: You can make the cookies and freeze them, but they taste even more delicious if you make and freeze the cookie dough (in ball form), then bake them right before you’re going to serve them.

We love this new and improved all-terrain stroller. We're out for walks a few times a day - with the dogs, school runs, shopping, etc. This one fits the bill for all of it!

- so easy to maneuver. It's seriously the smoothest ride ever. 
- 4-wheel spring suspension and large puncture-proof wheels let you glide over bumps and tight turns without disturbing babe.
- customizable colours 
- the bassinet has a great ventilation system to help babe regulate their natural body temperature.
