Step-by-Step Instructions for Healthy Gluten-Free Pistachio Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Process the raw pistachios in a food processor until they reach a coarse consistency.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pistachios, almond flour, baking soda, and sea salt.
  4. Add in maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and almond extract, mixing until a cohesive dough forms.
  5. Scoop out 1-tablespoon portions and roll into balls, then flatten to about half an inch thick on the baking sheet.
  6. Optionally, top each cookie with a whole or chopped pistachio.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are golden brown and centers are soft.
  8. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
