Apple Cinnamon Drops

Mia is taking a break from the peanut butter this week (not without some grumbling), and thought these apple cinnamon drops would be nice for a leisurely weekend brunch.

Ingredients:

• 5 c brown rice flour
• 2 large eggs
• 1 c applesauce
• 1 c cold water
• ½ c coconut or olive oil
• ½ c powdered milk
• 2 tbs chopped parsley (fresh or dried)
• 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions:

• Thoroughly mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
• Refrigerate for at least 1.5 hours (this makes the dough easier to handle).
• When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Pinch off pieces of dough according to the size of the treat you want, and roll into a ball between your hands.
• Put the dough balls on a lightly greased cookie sheet, spaced evenly apart.
• Lightly flour the bottom of a glass and use it to press the dough balls flat (aim for a fairly uniform thickness, about 1/8”).
• Bake for 20-25 minutes.
• Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack; store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Note: If you are making smaller treats, use the floured bottom of a shot glass or a plastic scoop (like the type that comes in jars of whey powder or meal replacement shakes) to press the dough flat; this will help keep the edges of the smaller treats from getting too thin.
