Equipment
- Oven
Ingredients
- ½ cup maple syrup
- ⅓ cup tahini or raw cashew butter
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups extra fine almond flour
- 2 tbsp tapioca flour or arrowroot powder or cornstarch
- ¾ tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp ceremonial grade matcha I used Matcha Kari
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ cup dairy-free white chocolate chips
- ½ cup macadamia nuts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add the maple syrup, tahini, and vanilla to a mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add in the flours, salt, matcha, and baking powder and use a whisk to combine, switching to a rubber spatula to finish mixing.
- Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts.
- Use a 1.5 tbsp sized scoop or roll balls by hand to create 30 cookies and spread evenly on the baking sheet. Leave as-is for a more ball-like cookie, or dip a glass in water and flatten each cookie for a flatter cookie.
- Optional to top with additional white chocolate chips if desired for extra cuteness.
- Transfer to the oven and bake for 8 minutes.
- Let cool and enjoy!
Notes
Ceremonial grade matcha works best for the most vibrant color and delicious taste for this recipe!
