Bonus: They happen to be gluten-free and vegan. As always, we’re all about feeding as many guests as possible regardless of dietary restrictions. But . . . whatever it is needs to taste good. The point is not to pretend that something tastes like something else. Rather, the point is to create something new and tasty.

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except for the Powdered Sugar (or powdered sweetener of choice).
  • Mix until a thick dough forms a large ball.
  • Place it in the refrigerator for 1 hour. (This gives the psyllium husk powder time to hydrate. I just put the whole bowl in the fridge.)
  • Once the chill time is done, preheat the oven to 350°F and line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Roll the dough into small balls, approximately 1 inch in diameter.
  • Place them on the prepared baking sheets. (I fit 20 cookies on each sheet.)
  • Bake at 350°F for 10 – 15 minutes or until the bottoms are just beginning to turn golden brown. Check them after 10 minutes. (Remember, these cookies are green, so look carefully.)
  • Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet.
  • Roll in Powdered Sugar or powdered sweetener of your choice.
