This unusual but simple recipe for sumptuous gluten-free cookies was created by illustrator Carol Kearns, whose work can be found in her online Etsy shop TheMuseumShelves. |
This recipe is so quick and easy to make yet the resulting cookies are surprisingly decadent with a rich chocolatey flavour and a lovely slightly squidgy centre. Using Hodemedod’s British grown and milled green pea flour (currently 25% off!) means that they are also gluten-free though no-one, to date, has guessed that they are made with pea rather than wheat flour.
I was inspired to add the pistachios because of the beautiful colour of the green pea flour but these cookies are wonderfully adaptable, so give them a whirl with hazelnuts and white chocolate, or substitute glacé cherries or dried apricots for the nuts.
Delicious with a cup of tea or coffee you could also serve them for pudding - still slightly warm from the oven - with a scoop of ice-cream!
Makes 12 generous cookies

Caponata is a much-loved Sicilian dish of bold Mediterranean flavours, traditionally a rich, sweet-sour stew of aubergines, onions, tomatoes, capers and herbs. In this version, tender borlotti beans join the mix, adding extra substance, creamy texture and a satisfying protein boost, making it as perfect for a light main as it is for a side dish.

Lentils can sometimes blend into the background of a dish but these organic black lentils from France deserve to be the star of the show. This simple dish showcases their texture, colour and flavour.
