    🍯 Naturacentric Honey

    Naturacentric is a lovely little company founded by Natalie Meneses of Turlock, California. Naturacentric offers a variery of unique, plant-based infused honey including Elderberry and HIbiscus (used in this recipe), and fun varieties such as Pumpkin Spice, Coffee and CBD infused honey. Naturacentric also offers a variety of magical tea blends, as well as natural, cruelty-free soaps, and more! One of the things I most love about Naturacentric is their commitment to being a zero waste company. Naturacentric uses eco-friendly, sustainable packaging in all of their products, and donates 10% of all earned proceeds to environmentally conscious non-profit organizations.

    📖 Common Recipe Questions - Gluten-Free Thumbprint Cookies

    1. 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.

    2. 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!

    3. 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

    1. Keep it Coconut

      Due to the unique nature of coconut flour, I do not recommend you replace it with another flour.

    2. 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.
