How do I thicken cookie dough without flour?!
2 cups corn starch plus
2 tsp baking soda
1 egg
1 cup butter
1 1/2 cup Splenda
dash of cinnamon
dash of nutmeg
couple dashes of ginger
Splash of vanilla caramel coffee creamer (I was playing it by ear and used what I have on hand)
The batter is two runny and liquefies when I try to bake it. I have no flour or baking powder or cream of tartar or oats (all are suggestions I've been told to use). I have baking soda, cornstarch, eggs...and various other things like granola bars and cereal but I'm not sure if anything like that can be ground up to use as a thickener.
Any suggestions?
Answers:
Eggs... But it will give it a cakier consistency once baked
You can try adding some more cornstarch but only add a little bit at a time and work each bit in to see if it thickens to the desired consistency.
Another option would be to crush up some granola bars (very fine) and incorporate that into the mix (again only adding a little bit at a time and working each bit in). I think you'll find this would thicken the dough and also add a nice crunch / flavour.
Goodluck!
Is it because you don't have any or youre not using wheat?
Soy flour
ground flax seed(flax meal)
Ground nuts, walnuts, almonds....
