Last week I celebrated five years of Cookie Friday. Theoretically, I could have posted these Gluten-free Chocolate Chip Cookies for that special day, but I saved the recipe for this week here because it fits perfectly into the “American Week” and the cookies are definitely a delicious snack for tomorrow’s 4th of July ;)
Well… what can I say? These gluten-free Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies are to die for! There have not been many cookie recipes this lately where I’ve devoured the result as I did here. My beloved “friend” diabetes keeps me away from sweets most of the time, but I just could not resist here… and that means a lot! ;)
Happy Cookie Friday! Today’s recipe is a little bit different… many people come here on Fridays because they like the classic, large cookies with loads of chocolate and stuff like that – today’s cookies are made without white sugar or regular flour. They are slightly smaller and you could almost say… slightly healthier than other cookies. But that doesn’t mean that these Peanut Butter Banana Bread Cookies are less delicious ;)
My first “new” rhubarb recipe this year. I have to admit I’m a little behind when it comes to rhubarb. The small red stalks have been available here for quite some time already, but I didn’t start baking with them right away this year. Somehow I am not in the usual “baking mood” right now. Due to social distancing I have fewer people I can feed with my bakes so everything has gone down a bit ;) Well… but today it happened – I made a delicious Rhubarb Almond Cake and you can enjoy this one here right now… at least visually. If you want to taste it, you have to bake it yourself :P
Easter is over – let’s get back to business ;) I hope you had a good time and you could spend some nice days with your family or friends – of course, only within the allowed limits and restrictions. Don’t forget those 6 feet distance at the dinner table ;) Easter was very quiet for us this year, but I was able to bake a few things… which none of them will end up on this blog here ;) This delicious (Keto) Lemon Poppy Seed Bundt Cake here was made some time before Easter and did not survive until the weekend. Well… in case you still have problems organizing flour, you can try this cake here. No flour needed – almonds are used as a substitute here.
Today’s Cookie Friday recipe is a classic Snickerdoodle turned into somewhat slightly healthier Snickerdoodle – let’s say it that way ;) Delicious Keto Snickerdoodles made without any white sugar nor flour. If you want to cut back on sugar or have problems with gluten – these cookies might be the right cookies for you… besides tasting really nice, of course ;)
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
