ALMOND MOLASSES COOKIES

Almond molasses cookies are a great choice for anyone who loves nutty, sweet treats, and a cup of coffee or tea to go with it!

Almond molasses cookies are a delicious treat that are made with a combination of almond flour, molasses, and a few other simple ingredients. These cookies have a unique flavour that is both sweet and nutty, with a chewy texture that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.

To make almond molasses cookies, almond flour is used instead of regular flour, giving the cookies a nutty flavor and a slightly denser texture. Molasses is added to the mixture to provide a rich sweetness that is both tangy and earthy. Other ingredients include eggs, butter, sugar, baking powder, salt, and vanilla extract.

After mixing the ingredients together, the dough is rolled into balls and flattened slightly before being baked in the oven. The resulting cookies are soft and chewy, with a slightly crisp exterior and a rich, flavourful interior.

Ingredients

2 cups of almond flour
1 cup of GF baking flour 1:1
1 tsp of all-spice
1 1/2 tsp of baking powder
1/2 tsp of salt
2 tbsp of coconut oil
1 egg
3 tbsp of honey
1 tbsp of molasses
handful of whole almonds

If you need to substitute ingredients in the Almond Molasses cookie recipe, here are some suggestions:

Almond Flour: you can try using other nut flours such as hazelnut, cashew or walnut flour. Alternatively, you can use regular all-purpose flour or a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend.
GF Baking Flour 1:1: you can make your own by mixing equal parts of rice flour, potato starch, and tapioca flour.
All-Spice: All-spice is a spice blend made from cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. You can use a combination of these three spices in equal parts.
Baking Powder: you can make your own by mixing 1 part baking soda with 2 parts cream of tartar.
Coconut Oil: you can use other vegetable oils such as canola or sunflower oil.
Egg: If you don’t eat eggs, you can try using a vegan egg substitute such as flax eggs or chia eggs.
Honey: you can use other liquid sweeteners such as maple syrup, agave nectar, or brown rice syrup.
Molasses: If you don’t have molasses, you can use maple syrup or honey.
