If you are a nature enthusiast and would like to venture to something different, here is a step-by-step guide to making gluten-free dandelion cookies using coconut flour.
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons chopped dandelion petals (or/and sprinkle some on top few minutes before taking out of the oven)
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, honey or maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well until a dough forms.
3. Add the chopped dandelion petals to the dough and mix until they are evenly distributed.
4. Using your hands, form small dough balls and place them on the lined baking sheet. Flatten each dough ball slightly with your fingers.
5. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until they are lightly golden brown.
6. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. Once cooled, enjoy your gluten-free dandelion cookies made with coconut flour!
These cookies are a unique and delicious treat that's perfect for anyone looking for a gluten-free and plant-based dessert option. Enjoy!
