This recipe is adapted from Sweet as Honey’s Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies (Merci Carine!). I used coconut sugar instead of eryhritol (I have no idea what that is but the name is super unappealing) and I added 1/2 tsp of almond extract because I…

This is the third experiment with baking gluten-free chocolate chip cookies. This time I used a new flour (Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 Gluten-free flour which already has xanthan gum built in) and Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-free egg replacer. I didn’t bother letting the…
