You may have heard that a few plant foods (including almonds) are unethical to consume. The reason behind this is that nearly all almonds grown worldwide are farmed in California (where they use a colossal amount of water in a state that is prone to drought).
Also big corporate farms use pesticides that lead to monoculture orchards, so bees get sick. So buy almonds from Europe that don’t farm in the same harmful manner.
These almond cookies (Rainbow Nourishments) taste like almond croissants and only need a few simple ingredients including sustainable almonds, vegan butter, brown sugar and optional almond extract.
Before baking, read up on food safety for people and pets (unsafe ingredients include nuts, coffee, chocolate, dried fruits, citrus and nutmeg).
