These cookies are very nutty tasting and a hint of jam in each thumb print is perfect. It gives it that nut butter and jam sandwich taste which I love. I used Agave Nectar in mine instead of honey. I got this recipe from the Living Without website. If you don't have any Gluten Free flour its easy to make. Here's a simple recipe from Living Without: MAKES 2 CUPS 1 cup rice flour ½ cup tapioca starch/flour ½ cup cornstarch or potato starch Seal in an air tight container.
