Almond Tea Cookies (Gluten-Free)
Food Ingredients:
1/2 cup salted butter, softened 1 cup sugar 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract 3/4 cup tapioca flour 1 1/4 cups brown rice flour 1 teaspoon xanthan gum 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda almonds for putting on top of the cookies
Recipe preparation:
1 Preheat oven to 345 degrees F. 2 Using an electric mixer, beat the butter, egg, vanilla extract, almond extract, and sugar, until fluffy. Add dry ingredients and mix until blended. The dough should be crumbly when squeezed into a ball. Form the dough into 1 inch in diameter balls. Place them two inches apart on un-greased cookie sheet. Using your finger, press one almond into the center of each cookie. The dough will crack a bit. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush the cookies with beaten egg white. 3 Bake the cookies for 9 minutes. Once cookies come out of the oven, let cool on cookie sheet. 4 Place on cooling rack.
