Cranberry Almond Cookies

Egg-free and delicious.  I got this recipe from a friend and they are my new favorite cookie.  And not just because I can't eat eggs.  They have a nice texture and flavor.


Ingredients:

2 cups GF flour
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1 1/3 cup arrowroot powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoons xanthan gum
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter
1/2 cup chia mix (that is 2 tbs chia seeds mixed into 6 tbs water, let sit for about 5 minutes)
2 tablespoons almond milk
1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1/2 cup (or so) chopped dried cranberries(these are optional...add nothing or whatever sounds good!)

Directions;

1.  Combine the dry ingredients.

2.  Add the wet inredients and mix well.  Add the cranberries.

3.  Refrigerate for at least an hour.

4.  Heat oven to 350*.  Line baking sheet with parchment or silpat.

5.  Form dough into balls, place on baking sheet and smash slightly.

6.  Bake for 12-14 minutes.  They should be just barely browned on the edges.  Let them cool for about a minute of the sheet, then transfer to a rack.


I'm sure you could make these with eggs, if you like. 1/2 cup chia mix equals 2 eggs.
