Cookies are the best, seriously! There’s this huge donut craze on social media nowadays, don’t know if you’ve caught it–I love donuts, don’t get me wrong. But cookies will ALWAYS hold a special place in my heart. I ate more cookies than donuts growing up because my dad was naturally averted from donuts after working at Krispy Kreme for his entire high school career! Anyhow, you’ve really inspired me to create more cookies in my kitchen. My birthday’s in FOUR DAYS and I need recipe ideas!
Can these be made with unblanched almond flour?
sure can!
Would I be able to substitute the 2 cups of blanched almond flour for equal parts of all-purpose flour? If so, would it change the consistency of the original cookie recipe?
I haven’t tried, feel free to experiment and see
Could you use coconut flour instead or almond flour?
Nope, that won’t work!
Is there a good granular substitute for the sticky sweetener? Like monk fruit golden or regular? I can’t have syrup or honey of any kind!
Not that I’ve tried!
