How to Make Almond Butter Raisin Cookies Vegan Gluten Free
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Soak 1 cup raisins in 1/2 cup warm water for 5 minutes. Drain well and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, cream together ½ cup roasted almond butter, ½ cup maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tbsp water).
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in the drained raisins.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
