Gluten Free Shortbread Cookies with Lavender, Ginger, and Walnuts

Gluten Free Shortbread Cookies with Lavender, Ginger, Walnuts

Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 11 minutes
Freezing Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 46 minutes
Servings: 8 serving

Ingredients:

1/2 cup tapioca flour sifted
1/2 cup almond flour sifted
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
1 1/2 tsp culinary grade lavender buds
4 tbs coconut oil melted
3 tbs maple syrup

Directions:

In a large mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients. Stir until uniformly mixed.

In another bowl, combine coconut oil & maple syrup. Whisk well.

Pour your dry ingredients into your wet ingredients. Stir until you have a smooth (slightly sticky) dough.

Roll into a log (about 8″ long). Wrap, and then freeze for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, and set aside.

Remove your cooled cookie dough from the freezer & unwrap.

Slice into cookies about 1/4″ thick. (Alternatively, you can slice
what you would like to make & freeze the rest for later use!)

Place sliced cookies onto your parchment-lined cookie sheet at least 1″ apart – as your cookies will expand a little while baking.

Bake for 11 minutes, or until the edges are beginning to turn golden.

Let cool completely before serving.

I hear you! We are waiting for a settlement and we might have money to do so. It’s an awful reason we had to file the suit because it really changed our lives and not for the better. And we don’t even go to trial til September. Blah blah blah

September will be here before you know it. Never too early to work some magic on your own behalf. Good luck!
