In a nutshell, these are just delicious. I don’t know about you but it kind of gets boring having to always use almond flour or coconut flour. So, I decided to change it up a little and introduce new flavors and textures. The best part is that these are healthy cookies that can be enjoyed by kids as well. All the benefits without the unruly behavior and sugar-spikes, from sugar-laden, carb-heavy, empty-calories, they get from regular cookies.
Most of my baking is sugar-free but once a while you will find that I may use other alternatives. You can easily replace sugar with your choice of sweetener. The recipes are very flexible and adaptable. I hope you enjoy these!

You can adjust sugar based on your taste. I generally do not eat anything to sweet so my recipes tend to have mild sweetness to them.

I Love this recipe. So happy I found it. Can I use almond flour in case I need to?
Yes, you can. Almond flour is similar in composition to almond flour so you can use 1:1 ratio. It will change the taste though.
So yummy! Allergic to almonds, so happy to have found a hazelnut cookie recipe. I flattened them with a fork 1/2 way though baking to get a crispy cookie.
That’s awesome. I love hazelnuts and so hazelnut flour. Glad you tried them and stopped by. I love that idea of flattening them for crispier cookie.
Can I replace xanthum gum with something or can I skip it?
Hi Charu,
Yes you can replace it. Gelatin would be the best. Use 2 parts gelatin for 1 part xanthum gum (XG). Additional option can include psyllium husk (2 parts for 1 part XG). I have not tried it with alternatives so let me know how it goes.
