I have been searching for some recipes like this to help my Dad make a gift for his pastor who has to be gluten free and dairy free! Sounds like the perfect recipe! Thank you so much!
I’ve never heard of baking with essential oils. I’m always on the hunt for vegan cookies (my daughter has an egg allergy), so I’ll be giving these a shot soon!
What an awesome recipe! It has everything I want: gluten-free for my grandson, vegan for me, and I love the use of essential oils which is so unique. I can’t wait ot try it!
