Gluten Free Passover Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe FAQ
Yes! These cookies are delicious when made with 2 tablespoon room temperature butter instead of oil. If using butter cream butter and sugar together first then add remaining ingredients. Keep in mind that this recipe is non-dairy and pareve as written; if you use butter the recipe will be dairy.
Absolutely. Make these cookies keto friendly by replacing the brown sugar for dry sweeter such as erythritol or xylitol. I have not tried making them with liquid sweetener such as honey.
Allow cookies to cool completely then store in an airtight container on the counter for a few days. They can also be frozen for a few months in an airtight container or freezer bag.
These cookies do not contain any matzo meal. This recipe uses almond meal and is therefore gluten-free.
