No Flour Bites of Goodness in 20 Mins !
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups of shelled pistachios
1/2 cup sugar
1 Cup of almond flour
2 egg whites
1/2 tsp lemon extract
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp lemon zest
1 cup of powered sugar
Directions:
Line a baking tray with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 350F.
Add the pistachios and the sugar to a food processor. Process until you don't see any large chunks of nuts. Transfer the mixture to a clean bowl and mix in the almond flour.
Add the egg whites, lemon extract, and vanilla extract and mix with a spatula until you get a slightly sticky dough. If the dough is too thick, use more egg whites, but just 1 tsp at a time until you get the right consistency.
Form round cookies with your hands or with the help of a cookie scoop. Cookies can be extra sticky so we'd suggest you use gloves on this step. Roll each of them in the powered sugar and flatten them a bit with the bottom of a glass before placing them on the prepared baking tray. If you're looking for a more calorie friendly cookie you can also roll these cookies in extra chopped pistachios.
Bake for 10 - 12 minutes until they start to turn slightly brown. Remove the cookies from the oven (they will still be soft) and allow them to cool completely before you transfer them.
After they've cooled you can lightly dust with powered sugar.
