Grain free eggnog cookies

This was so random, but I decided to make my own recipe of eggnog grain free cookies. What can I say? I have a sweet tooth that cannot be tamed , even when I can’t eat grain… Did that rhyme??

These are super easy, also this recipe only makes 4 medium sized cookies so double it for more.

1 tablespoon coconut flour
3 table spoons almond flour
2 tablespoons egg nog
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/4 tsp baking soda
2 tsp apple sauce in place of coconut oil ( I ran out)

Roll cookie in the following mixture prior to placing it on the tray:
1 tablespoon coconut sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp brown sugar

Throw everything in a bowl, mix it really well. Mine seemed bordering on liquids but I went with it. It should be to loose, if it is add almond flour 1-2 tsp at a time until its thick enough that you can form it into a ball.

Form into balls (slightly less than a tablespoon) , roll into cinnamon sugar mixture and place on tray. Pat with the back of a spoon to flatten before putting in over on 350 for 12-18 minutes. They will be slightly brown on top when ready, they will harden more when they come out…. Bonus…. You can eat the dough!!!!

Maple sesame almonds grain free

These almonds are amazing, the picture sucks but they are amazing. I am back on my grain free diet and I needed some real sweets in my life besides dark chocolate bars. These totally hit the spot… Sesame seeds, agave, and maple syrup, bake in the oven and done. You can add other spices to give them a kick too!!
