Preheat oven to 400F degrees.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
3
|
Using your hands, add the shredded beets to the flour mixture and toss to coat.
4
|
Add the oil and work with your hands to bring the dough together (the salt and sugar will fall to the bottom of the bowl so make sure you knead the dough well to combine everything — the outcome will be a smooth dough).

|
Form the smooth, sweet beet dough into a flat disk and roll it out to 1/2 inch thick on parchment paper or a dry clean surface.
6

Using a knife, cut the dough into squares or use small cookie cutters to cut out shapes.

Bake on a Silpat or parchment-lined cookie sheet for 15-17 minutes.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Grate Beets Fine for Moisture Control 🥗Use a box grater or food processor to finely grate raw beets, then squeeze them firmly in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture—this prevents soggy cookies and ensures optimal crunchiness.
- Toast Your Flour for Depth 🌾Lightly toast the all-purpose flour in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before mixing to add a subtle nutty complexity that complements the beet's earthiness without overpowering sweetness.
- Chill Dough Before Baking ❄️Refrigerate your cookie dough for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and prevent spreading, resulting in thicker, crunchier cookies with better-defined edges.
- Use Quality Oil for Better Texture 🫒Choose neutral, high-quality oils like refined coconut or light olive oil rather than vegetable oil—they create superior texture and allow the beet and sugar flavors to shine without interference.
- Underbake Slightly for Maximum Crunch 🍪Remove cookies when the edges are set but centers still appear slightly soft; they'll continue cooking on the hot baking sheet and achieve an ideal crispy exterior with a delicate snap.
