Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Ground pistachios
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 1 unit Large egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cups Whole pistachios, roughly chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, ground pistachios, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium-high speed until fluffy and light, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, beating until well combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just incorporated.

Step 6

Fold in the chopped whole pistachios using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will look slightly underbaked, which is ideal for a chewy texture.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
