How to Make Crispy Quinoa Cookies Wheat Free

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) softened margarine, 1/2 cup (100g) packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup (60ml) honey, 1/2 cup (120g) creamy peanut butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (180g) rice flour, 1 cup (85g) Ancient Harvest organic quinoa flakes, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in 1/2 cup (60g) chopped nuts (optional).
  6. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
