Notes on ingredients
- White rice flour: Rice flour is a delicate neutral tasting gluten-free flour that I use quite often in gluten-free baking.
- Oat flour: Oat flour is a nutritious, unrefined flour that lends great texture to baked goods.
- Potato starch: Potato starch is a pure starch extracted from potatoes. It has a light, powdery, flour-like consistency. It improves crispness resulting in a more delicate texture of the cookies. It is naturally wheat-free and gluten-free.
- Ground walnuts: Ground walnuts have a rich nutty flavor that makes them perfect for baking into cookies.
- Coconut sugar: It can be subbed with brown sugar or regular white sugar (for a less healthy version).
- Coconut oil: It provides a rich taste and more flavor overall.
- Rice milk: Substitute it with soy milk, oat milk or almond milk.
