Gluten Free Tiger Nut Chocolate Chip Cookies
Tiger nut flour is the new kid on the block. It has vast benefits including being a stand alone flour – meaning you can substitute it for regular flour in a 1:1 ratio. Because it is naturally a little sweet you can also reduce the amount of sugar in recipes. Finally it contains more nutrients including protein, vitamins and minerals so your recipes automatically become more nutritious. If you have not tried Tiger Nuts they are a fun chewy snack that you can mix in your nuts for variety.
