Maple Spice Sandwich Cream Cookies from Heather Crosby’s Yumuniverse

Author - Gena Hamshaw
Yields: 10 Servings

Ingredients

Spiced Cream:

  • 1 cup cashews soaked
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Pinch sea salt
  • Pinch ground clove
  • Pinch ground nutmeg
  • Pinch ground cardamom*

Wet:

  • ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • ¼ cup + 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons hot water

Dry:

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • 2/3 cup brown rice flour
  • 3 tablespoons Sucanat
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon sea salt

Fold-ins:

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup raw pecans toasted and chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Blend together all Spiced Cream ingredients until smooth and pop in the fridge to chill for 2–4 hours.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk or blend together all wet ingredients and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Fold wet ingredients into dry, and then add fold-ins.
  • Spoon dough into 2" rounds onto baking sheet. Press them down a touch with your hand or a silicone spatula. (They don’t collapse when baking, so the height they go in is the height they come out.)
  • Bake 10–12 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet. Transfer to fridge to chill.
  • Remove Spiced Cream from fridge and spread some on one cooled cookie. Close with another. Repeat until all cookies are made into magical sandwiches.
  • psst! You can skip the Spiced Cream and just make oatmeal cookies here. Try adding the spice from the cream into the batter first or adding ¼ cup raisins.
