Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour (see notes)
- 1 cup almond meal
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon xanthan gum
- ¾ teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup golden or dark brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1½ cups dried cherries, roughly chopped
- ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
Instructions
- Set the oven and prep the baking sheets. Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a couple of baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Make the batter. In a large mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, almond meal, salt, xanthan gum, baking soda and baking powder. Set aside.In another large mixing bowl, combine the butter with the vanilla and sugars. Mix until everything is evenly blended. Then add the eggs and again, mix to blend.Add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients and mix just until you no longer see dry areas.
- Shape. Use a 1¼ inch cookie scoop to shape the cookies into balls of dough, placing them on the parchment-lined baking sheets as you go. There should be about 10 to 12 per sheet, with at least 2 to 3 inches between them.
- Bake. Bake in the preheated 350°F oven until the cookies are golden along the edges, 8 to 10 minutes. Let them cool completely on the baking sheets, at least 15 minutes.
- These cookies will become quite flat when you bake them. That's how they should be. Though delicate, they hold together very well, and when you hold them up to the light and you'll see why they're called lace cookies!
