Ingredients

18 servings

For the gelatin egg

1 tbsp unflavored gelatin powder
3 tbsp cold water

For the dough

2 cups cassava flour
2 tbsp arrowroot starch
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp cream of tartar
¼ tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
¼ tsp fine sea salt
½ cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
⅓ cup maple syrup
Chef's tip
Use the same amount; honey is a little thicker and slightly sweeter.
1 tsp vanilla powder
1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions

1
Make the gelatin egg: sprinkle the gelatin over the cold water in a small bowl and let it bloom for 2 minutes, then set the bowl over a small saucepan of barely simmering water and stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth and slightly syrupy, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes — it should be warm but not hot.
2
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
