Amaranth Walnut Cookies

Ingredients:

4 ounces (about 1 cup) walnuts
1/3 cup amaranth
1/2 cup sugar
6 tablespoons coconut oil
1/2 egg replacer
1/2 teaspoon imitation brandy flavoring
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons amaranth
30 walnuts, cut in half

Process the walnuts and amaranth with half the sugar in a food processor until they are ground. Set aside.

Add remaining sugar to a bowl with the coconut oil, egg replacer, brandy flavoring, and vanilla.

Stir in the flour, salt, and nut mixture until smooth. Cover and refrigerate 3 hours or overnight.

Pinch off 1/2 tablespoon sized pieces of dough and roll into balls. Roll the balls in the amaranth and press a walnut piece into them on a baking sheet to slightly flatten.

Bake 17 minutes at 350.
