Plot twist: Not all gluten-free desserts<\/a> are dry and crumbly. We found a way to make mouthwatering cookies, no flour required. These almond butter cookies are are moist, chewy and the perfect combination of sweet and salty. Best of all? They can be whipped up in less than five minutes using ingredients you already have in your pantry. These treats are an excellent substitute for peanut butter cookies<\/a> if gluten is off the table for you or your guests.<\/p>\n
