    Title: Homemade Fortune Cookies (Gluten-Free, Grain-Free)
    Categories: Nuts, Dairy, Citrus
    Yield: 18 servings

    2/3 c Almond flour
    1/3 c Tapioca flour
    1/4 c Heavy cream
    3 tb Butter; melted
    1 lg Egg
    1/4 c Coconut sugar
    1/4 ts Salt
    1 ts Vanilla extract
    Zest of a lemon or orange

    Equiment: pizzelle iron

    Preheat the pizzelle iron, iron, or skillet.

    If using an oven set it to around 400oF/200oC. If using
    a skillet, use medium heat.

    Blend all of the ingredients together well.

    Spoon about a tablespoon of the batter onto the hot iron
    and close. If you are using an oven instead, spread the
    batter into a thin, even circle (around 3 inches in
    diameter) on a tray prepared with some parchment paper
    or a silicone mat. If using your stove, quickly spread
    the batter in a circle on the hot skillet.

    Close the iron and wait a minute or two before opening
    it to peek at how the cookie is looking.

    If you are using the stove, you want to bake the cookie
    until it begins to brown. It is normal for the edges to
    be slightly darker than the center. Be careful not to
    allow them to burn.

    If using a skillet, cook the batter until the top of the
    cookie is no longer sticky before flipping it like you
    would a pancake. Your cookie is ready when it is lightly
    browned on both sides.

    No matter which method you are using, you want to
    achieve a golden brown color. If the cookie doesn't
    reach this stage, it won't crisp up enough to hold its
    shape or have the texture of a fortune cookie.

    Once your cookie has browned, carefully remove it from
    the heat source and begin to form it into a fortune
    cookie shape.

    To form the fortune cookie, begin by placing your
    fortune in the center of the circle, then fold the
    cookie in half over the slip of paper.

    Immediately fold the cookie in half again, this time by
    bringing the side edges down and together. This can more
    simply be done by bringing each edge down on either side
    of the rim of a glass or a bowl.

    Once you have achieved the right shape, place your
    cookie in a muffin tin to help it keep its shape until
    it cools. Once cool, it will harden enough to be crispy
    and hold its shape on its own.

    Eat immediately or store in a well sealed container to
    prevent the humidity from reaching your cookies and
    making them soggy!

    Enjoy!
