Grain-Free No'tmeal Cookies ❤

 

This Grain-Free No'tmeal Cookie recipe is a gluten-free, easy-to-make, and some say, better than the real thing. 

Ingredients: 

• 3 cups almond flour
• 1 cup tapioca flour
• ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
• 1½ tablespoon cinnamon
• 2 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup honey or brown sugar replacement
• ½ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar replacement
• 2 tablespoons grass fed butter
• 1½ tablespoons vanilla
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup raisins (optional - can use sugar free dried cranberries too, recipe on my blog)

Instructions: 

• Preheat oven to 350° F.
• In a bowl combine almond flour, tapioca flour, shredded coconut, flax, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the honey, coconut sugar, butter, vanilla, and eggs to a stand mixer and use the paddle attament on medium until well combined, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Slowly add the dry ingredinets into the stand mixer with the other ingredients and mix until combined about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the raisins and mix until combined... not very long. 😉
• Lightly grease a cookie sheet and measure out about 1½ tablespoons of dough to create each cookie. Do not roll the dough between yours hands. Simply place it onto the cookie sheet and gently form a "cookie"/disc shape if needed.
  
• Bake for 12 minutes and set aside to cool.

Notes:

• Feel free to omit the raisins if you’re one of “those people” who don’t like raisins in their bakes goods. Add chocolate hips instead. And if for some reason you’re ok with dried cranberries and not raisins (?!), dried cranberries are lovely in this too.
• Don’t roll the dough in your hands to form the cookies. That will create too smooth of a surface and the jagged bits that stick out brown and crisp up, lending to it’s texture.
• About 2 minutes prior to removing them from the over, very gently tap the surface down with a back of a spoon to very lightly flatten the tops.

Storage:

• The cookies freeze up lovely once baked however the batter doesn’t freeze up quite as well.
