Description

Replacing half the all-purpose flour in a traditional pizzelle recipe with almond flour and decreasing the sugar results in a cookie with twice the fiber and protein and a third less sugar. Using coconut oil instead of butter results in a rich coconut-y flavor that is sure to please your favorite pizzelle lovers! Research shows that coconut oil may increase heart-healthy HDL cholesterol. Sprinkle the cookies with powdered sugar or serve with a small scoop of ice cream or frozen yogurt. 🙂

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
  • 1½ teaspoons anise extract
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  • Lightly oil or coat the pizzelle iron with nonstick cooking spray and plug it in to preheat.
  • Combine the eggs and sugar in a medium bowl and beat on medium speed until well blended, 2 minutes. Add the coconut oil, anise, and vanilla and beat until blended. Scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
  • At slow speed, gradually beat the flour mixture into the liquid mixture until just combined.
  • Place one heaping teaspoon at a time in the center of each of the grids of the pizzelle iron and clamp the handles together with the handle clamp.
  • Cook for about 40 seconds, until the cookie is lightly browned. Remove with a spatula and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
