Gluten Free Amaretti Cookies

Yields: 24

Italian amaretti cookies are small, round, cookies made from ground almonds, sugar, and egg whites. They are crisp on the outside and chewy in the centre. In this recipe we use Amaretto liqueur and pure vanilla for some extra depth to the flavour.

• 280g cane Sugar

1. Preheat oven to 365F with the rack in the middle position. 

2. Combine all ingredients and mix well by hand or in a stand mixer. 

3. Scoop with a small scoop or form by hand into roughly 30g balls onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. 

4. Press a whole almond onto the top of each cookie. 

5. Place in the oven and bake 20-24 minutes until evenly browned.
