Fried Pinole Cookies
For a tasty, pancake-style cookie, you can mix your pinole with a few ingredients and carefully fry it in a pan. Here’s how:
- 1 cup Wheat flour (if you are gluten intolerant, substitute almond flour)
- 2 tbsps baking powder
- 1 cup Pinole made with the optional almonds and flaxseed
- 1/3 cup Brown sugar
- 3 tbsps Butter
Mix together wheatflour, baking powder, and pinole.
In another bowl, whip together butter, sugar, and egg.
Add both mixtures together until you get a soft paste. You can add a little milk or water if it’s too dry and crumbly. Just be careful you don’t make it too sticky.
Put a little oil in your pan and heat it up. Carefully fry a small ‘cake’ of your mixture. Fry until it’s golden brown on both sides. Be careful when you flip your pinole cookie because it will be crumbly.
