Guest guest Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 I had to reply to this because I make these just about everyday! I obviously don't store for too long because we go through them fast. I put them on a paper towel in some tupperware and leave them on the counter. They stay moist and don't crumble. My guess is that they would freeze nicely. I have not substituted anything for the almond flour because my ds is so happy with them just as they are and he is doing well on the diet. Hope this helps, , mom to 3 teens and SCD 12 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Just got through making the cookies and my ds was thrilled I have to admit that they are good. Now for the questions. How do most of you store them? I plan to ration them out so they will last a while. Has anyone subbed almond butter for the flour and if so, how did they turn out? Has anyone subbed pecan flour for the almond and if so, how were they? Thanks. Elaine B mom to JD - SCD for almost a yr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 My daughter loves cinnamon - would you mind posting the recipe? I obviously haven't made these cookies, but we've made lots of almond meal treats, and unlike GFCF baked goods, they keep pretty well and stay moist. I keep some in a ziplock container or plastic bag, and freeze the ones I don't plan on eating right away. mom to ASD daughter, almost 4, SCD 7 weeks > > Just got through making the cookies and my ds was thrilled > I have to admit that they are good.

Nut butter is just nuts processed beyond the flour stage and the butters work very well in cookies. CHRISTMAS COOKIES by 3 cups almond flour, hazlenut flour or pecan flour 1/4 cup honey 1/2 cup applesauce 3 eggs (may use 1/4 cup melted coconut oil instead) 2 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp salt 1 tsp vanilla 1/2 tsp ginger 3/4 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp nutmeg Preheat oven 300F. Mix and form little balls the size of walnuts. Place evenly on non-stick cookie sheet, silpat or parchment paper. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until slightly brown. Carol F SCD 4yrs, Celiac.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Yes, we've used the Peanut Butter cake recipe a lot. It seemed that the almond butter would be a lot oilier than the flour and I wondered about the consistency in the cookies.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Yes, these cookies are eggless. These are the instructions: Place butter in a mixing bowl. Add all other ingredients, except pecans, stirring the flour in last. Form dough into 1-inch diameter balls and place on a buttered cookie sheet. Press a pecan half into each ball to flatten. If not using pecans, flatten cookies with the back of a fork. Bake at 275F for 10-15 minutes, or until done. I keep them in the refrigerator and have successfully frozen them by putting wax paper between the layers. Lynda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 > > Yes, these cookies are eggless. Lynda, Here is a NON LEGAL conventional recipe for Shortbread. i am posting it to show how such cookies can be made without eggs and adjusted to SCD but I am not trying it until after the holidays as I am awaiting a shipment of almond flour. Perhaps someone else would like to. • 8 ounces butter (2 sticks), softened • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (sub honey) • 2 cups all-purpose flour (sub nut flour) • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder (sub baking soda) • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Combine all ingredients; knead with hands to combine. Press into ungreased pans (or roll out to about 1/2-inch on a floured board and cut into shapes). Bake at 325° for about 20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cut into wedges while warm or break apart. Carol F. SCD 4yrs, Celiac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2004 Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (sub honey) Keep in mind that honey is considered to be twice as sweet as sugar. So the amount of sugar is usually cut in half when replaced by honey. I'd try the recipe with 1/4 cup honey.
