Guest guest Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 This comes out crispy and tastes like a " butter cookie " - 1 cup cashew butter 1/2 stick butter 1 egg 1/4 cup pear sauce ( I can't use honey, could use honey if he can eat that) 6 tiny little saccharin tablets (again, because I can't use honey) This is a very runny cookie mix but spread into small circles with a spoon, and bake ON PARCHMENT PAPER for about 15 minutes at 350. Then turn the oven off but leave them in there another 20 mins or so until caramel colored. My kids have gone totally bonkers over these. Hope this helps! in NC Mom of Luke, age 5, Asperger's/low-salicylate; , age 3; and , 21 mos All SCD since 1/26/04 Crispy cookie recipe Hi everyone, I have not posted in a really long time - we sort of fell off of the diet and are now returning. Sam is a very picky eater (I know nothing new) and I was not convinced the diet was helping him enough to restrict him even more than he restricts himself. He was on the diet for 3 months. I know not long enough - well we are going back on the diet because being off of it has proven to me that he needs to be on it - there are no major differences being off of it just slight ones but enough that we want to try it again. Anyway, one of the things I am trying to make him is a cookie he will like. Off of the diet he loves animal cookies. I have never been able to make an SCD version he likes. Any suggestions? If not an animal cookie how about any cruncy cookie. ALl of the ones I make come out soft. We will not begin with the intro., hopefully we will go back to it later. Thanks, Mom to Sam 4 years old, SCD again soon For information on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, please read the book _Breaking the Vicious Cycle_ by Elaine Gottschall and read the following websites: http://www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info and http://www.pecanbread.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 I have made cookies based on the peanut butter brownie recipe substituting the PB with tahini. They come out crispy and taste much like a PB cookie. 1 cup tahini 1/2 honey 1 egg 1/2 tsp baking soda If you let this go in the food processor for a while it gets thick enough to scoop out. I bake mine at 325 and check every 5 min or so. I think I cook them for 15 min. I use a greased baking stone.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 Kathy,Tahini is a seed butter that is very tolerable to most people that can't tolerate nuts.My son tolerates it very well and he is very sal/phenol sensitive.Joyva brand is legal and it is made in a warehouse that only makes tahini and no other nut butters.It has a different taste and it is in a lot of mediteranian? dishes.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 yup, Joyva's the safe one. On the sal. list I have sesame seeds are just above Hazelnuts, pecans and cashews (cashew being the lowest.) but below peanuts, macadamia nuts, and walnuts (peanuts being the highest.) So I guess it's pretty much smack dab in the middle! Sam is ok with it. But with anything he eats, it has to be in moderation and rotated so he never has too much of it at once. I use it mostly just for school since they are tree nut free.
