Tea Cozy
Recipe Introduction
Crisp and light, these will make your sweetheart swoon
(You will need one 3-inch and one smaller heart cookie
cutter for this)
List of Ingredients
1/2 cup almonds, toasted and ground fine
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. light almond or canola oil
3 Tbsp. brown rice syrup
2 Tbsp. maple syrup
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. almond extract
1/2 cup natural raspberry jamRecipe
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Brush lightly with
oil.
Mix together first four ingredients. Stir together the
rest of the ingredients except for the jam and then
combine with the dry ingredients, stirring until well
combined. If this is too sticky, add more flour a
little bit at a time.
Roll out cookie dough to approximately 1/8 inch thick
or less between sheets of waxed paper. With the 3-inch
cookie cutter, cut out hearts and transfer to the
baking sheet. With the smaller cutter, cut a small
heart out of the middle of half of the cookie shapes.
Bake until cookies are very lightly toasted along the
edges, approximately 7 - 12 minutes.
When cool, spread 2 tsp. of jam on a heart cookie,
then place another on top of it. This looks nice
placed in small scoop of non-dairy ice cream or just
by itself.
