The infamous woman behind Internet Cookie, Gaia, has done it again, folks. They harnessed the power of The Light Ray's delightful flavor to make a most splendid gluten-free cookie for you to make at home.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups almond flour
1 1/2 cups buckwheat flour
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 cup rolled oats
1/4 tsp xantan gum
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup cane sugar
1 tsp vanilla paste or extract
1 egg
2 sticks unsalted butter
18oz raspberry jam
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F.
-
Line three half sheet pans with silpat or parchment baking paper.
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk together buckwheat flour, almond flour, oats, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, salt and xantan gum.
-
In a separate and larger bowl vigorously mix together the melted butter, light brown sugar and cane sugar. Once everything is properly mixed, add egg and vanilla paste.
-
Add the flour mix to the wet mix and mix everything together with a wooden spoon or spatula.
-
Add half the jar of raspberry jam and mix it into the batter.
-
With a cookie scooper, scoop out approximately 14 cookies and top each cookie with a tsp of jam.
-
Bake cookies for 14 minutes or until the edges are light brown.
-
I usually bake a tester cookie to see if the oven temperature is correct or to see if the batter needs more flour.
-
While your cookies are in the oven, whisk together the remaining raspberry jam with however much of The Light Ray you want to use. A dropper full per cookie works for me.
-
As the cookies come out of the oven, spoon a dollop of your jam mix on each cookie and gently spread it with the bottom of the soon.
-
Let the cookies cool on the cookie sheets for at least an hour before serving.
-
You can store them in ziplock bags and pop them in the freezer for up to two months.
