CACAO BENEFITS

I have already mentioned this in a previous post but let me say it again: CACAO is a great source of antioxidants which your body needs to combat free radicals. Try and consume a good quality cacao powder or chocolate square if you like this as a treat. The higher the amount of cacao the more you can benefit from its antioxidant’s properties.

Back to the recipe

I have chosen to make this recipe a gluten-free one! I have used rice flour which is extremely versatile and easy to bake with. You can use any flour you like; spelt flour works great too.

Almond powder is an ingredient that I love using in cookies, it gives them such a great texture and as result it is best you do not substitute it for another flour. Almond flour will your cookie a kind of “sandy” texture if you know what I mean! Perfectly crumbling in your mouth with a very buttery taste.

Dairy-free milk – choose the one you like; in this recipe I have used unsweetened oat milk.

Coconut oil – this is my favourite oil to bake cookies with, it brings so much sweetness and a wonderful taste which grows stronger day after day.

Unrefined Cane Sugar – try to use the unrefined one and if you can, swap for coconut sugar which I find more flavourful (that may be because I am a huge fan of coconut) . I have opted for a cheaper option in this recipe and chose cane sugar.
