Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 115 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 100 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 unit Large egg
- 120 grams Macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
- 150 grams White chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using an electric mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the butter and sugar mixture, beating until well combined.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.
Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts and white chocolate chips with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown and the centers are set.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your gluten-free macadamia nut cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
