#AdaptingOldRecipes

[soupcancont]

The recipe I use most often for Peanut Butter Cookies appears in Edna Staebler's Food That Really Schmecks (1968). I swapped out the all-purpose flour for quinoa flour. Ditto the egg, for three tablespoons of aquafaba and an eighth of a teaspoon of Cream of Tartar. I also decided to throw in a third of a cup of hemp hearts before the last stir. The result? They're good. It seems to me they taste sweeter than they usually do -- perhaps quinoa flour is blander than all-purpose? -- so I'll reduce the sugar if I make them again. I think that with that change, the nutty flavour might actually be more pronounced than it is for standard PB Cookies.
