INGREDIENTS
For pistachio cookies
- 1/2 cup pistachio butter made with the NutraMilk
- 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
- 2 tbsp. warmed plant-based milk milk of choice
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- 3/4 to 1 cup gluten free flour
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- ¼ cup cranberries or raisins, chopped
- ¼ cup walnuts, chopped
- 1/3 tsp salt
For pistachio butter
- 2 cups pistachio nuts (260g)
- 1/4 teaspoon pink Himalayan salt (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
- Start by making pistachio butter
- Place pistachios and salt in the NutraMilk container
- Press Butter cycle, set for 5-6 minutes
- Press Start
- Open the container if necessary, set for an additional 1-2 minutes for a creamier butter.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- In a bowl mix the pistachio butter, warmed (to almost hot) milk, maple syrup, cranberries, walnuts and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth. It will take about a minute to fully come together.
- Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in another bowl, then add 3/4 cup of the dry mix to the wet and make a soft sticky dough. Depending on your pistachio butter and flour you might need to add a bit more flour. The dough will be soft but shouldn’t be too runny/sticky. It will get more handleable on chilling. Refrigerate the cookie dough for 15 mins. If still too sticky then add more flour.
- Shape the dough into about an inch wide balls. Place the dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Flatten with finger or use a cookie cuter to give it a round shape.
- Bake the cookies for 11 mins. Let cool. Enjoy
