These look delicious! You could probably even skip out on the flour altogether for a simple crunch to put in the bottom of mini muffin tins and add some kind of fruit (pear) to bake in the oven...with the honey drizzled on top, mmm, your recipes make me hungry!

I did not have almond extract, but had vanilla and used that. Alos, none of my local stores had pastry flour :( I used my whole wheat flour and crossed my fingers. Mad a thicker chewey cookie but was still awesome. Next time I will decrease the whole wheat flour some.. However, my milk not so good, tasted watery. I know this is due to the fact I do not have a traditional blender or food processor. I have a smoothie maker and it just wasn't effecient enough. So I know what my next mini reward is :) Can't wait to make these again! Thanks Roni! Did these with the girls the other afternoon, FABULOUS!!

I usually freeze the almond meal and thaw it out to toss on salads (fresh nutty flavor) or find some cookie/cracker/pie crust recipes that use almond meal. You can also dehydrate it and grind it into a flour to use for baking--pretty versatile stuff! Good idea.

And yes, what is Agave and Lucama? Roni--These look wonderful. I haven't tried the almond milk yet, as I'm busy starting a lia sophia jewelry business, but I will...eventually. And I agree with Robyn...I am so impressed also, with how you just "come up with things"! David….the pie crust….is that just using the almond meal, or do you add flour and other ingredients?
