I rarely post but read almost daily. This recipe deserves to have a post though, so here goes.
Thank you, ElleH! I love this recipe. It is so easy to tweak for a variety of cookies.
Here is a list of the tweaks I’ve done so far. Love them all
Peanut butter:
1/4 c. almond flour
1/8 tsp. Baking powder
1 egg yolk or half an egg
3 drops sweetzfree
1 T. Peanut butter
1/4 tsp. Vanilla
Flaxmeal:
2 T. Almond flour and 2 T. Flaxmeal in original recipe instead of all almond flour. Have also added 1/8 tsp. Cinnamon.
Or,
1/4 c. almond flour, 3 T. Flaxmeal, 1 T. Coconut flour, 1/4 tsp. Each baking powder and Cinnamon, 1 egg, 2 T. Melted butter/oil, 5 drops sweetzfree, ½ tsp. Vanilla
Almond Coconut:
1/4 c. almond flour
1 Tbsp. Coconut flour
1/8 tsp. Baking powder
1 whole egg
3 drops sweetzfree
1 T. Melted butter
1/4 tsp. Vanilla
And my favorite,
Hazelnut Chocolate Chip:
!/2 c. almond flour
1/4 tsp. Baking powder
2 T. Chopped toasted hazelnuts
1 T. Bittersweet chocolate chips
1 egg
1T. Melted butter
1 T. Oil
½ tsp. Vanilla
5-6 drops sweetzfree
This recipe gave 6 cookies and took 15 minutes to bake. They were wonderful! Tasted very much like Ferrero Roche (sp?) candies. Just needs about double the chocolate chips next time, or maybe a coating of another T. Choc. Chips melted with a bit of butter or cream. Yumm!
Edited because I forgot to add,
Pecan cookies:
Just subs 1/4 c. pecan meal for the almond flour
Delicious!
