GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES WITH ALMOND FLOUR



Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies with Almond Flour image

These chocolate chip cookies are made with almond flour and are therefore gluten free. However, they taste so good, I would put them up against any cookie recipe out there, and they'd probably win. The texture is slightly crispy on the outside and moist and chewy in the middle. Nobody that I have baked these for has been able to eat just one.

ALMOND BUTTER COOKIES (GLUTEN FREE)



Almond Butter Cookies (Gluten Free) image

This recipe can be made with any kind of nut butter. It's not very sweet - peanut butter cookies usually are made with 1 cup pb and 1 cup sugar, so this is only half the amount of sugar. You can add raisins, chocolate chips, craisins, nuts.... whatever floats your boat! For the gluten free flour you can use 1 cup of any gf flour mix. Usually I use rice flour and tapioca starch.

Categories     Drop Cookies

Time 20m

Yield 18 cookies, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2/3 cup almond flour
2/3 cup coconut flour
2 eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted
3 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 cup dried cranberries (optional)
1/4 cup shelled pistachios (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Mix butter, eggs, vanilla extract, almond extract, and honey in a bowl. Whisk until well blended.
  • Add almond flour and coconut flour and mix with spoon until well blended and creamy. Texture will be much like peanut butter cookie dough. Add any optional ingredients (nuts, dried fruit, etc) and mix until well distributed.
  • Place balls of dough on greased cookie sheet. Bake for 5 minutes, then remove and press with a fork to flatten cookies and make criss cross pattern. Return to even and bake another 10-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use superfine almond flour: This will result in a finer texture and more even baking.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent spreading.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before storing: This will help them keep their shape and prevent sticking together.

Conclusion:

These gluten-free almond cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover almond flour. With their soft and chewy texture, and delicate almond flavor, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
