📖 Common Recipe Questions – Gluten-Free Thumbprint Cookies
- I’m on a nut-free diet, can I use something other than cashews?
Yes, you can use 6 tablespoons of sunflower seeds or 1/2 cup (111 grams) tahini as suitable alternatives.
- Can I replace the dates with another sweetener?
To really highlight the honey in this recipe, I do not recommend replacing dates with liquid or granulated sweeteners, however, you can replace dates with any dried fruit of your choosing. Raisins, cranberries and plums work really well in this recipe!
- Where can I find Naturacentric’s infused honey?
You can find the infused honey used in this recipe in Naturacentric’s online shop.
💭 Top Tips for Making No-Bake Cookies
- Keep it Coconut
Due to the unique nature of coconut flour, I do not recommend you replace it with another flour.
- Serving + Storing
These thumprint cookies taste best topped with honey right before serving, but the cookie batter or plain thumbprint cookies can be stored in the fridge or freezer until ready to serve. These cookies keep best in the fridge or freezer in an airtight container for up to one week. If freezing be certain to pull out 15 minutes before serving.
