Honey Almond Tea Cake Recipe

August 20
Honey Almond Tea Cakes Recipe
Someone requested the entire recipe. The original full recipe is as follows:

3/4 C. Oil
1 C. Sugar or Equal amount of Honey (no water added)
2 Eggs
2 Tsp. Vanilla Extract
2-1/2 C. Self Rising Flour
Finely Ground Almonds
I cut the recipe in half and added 3/4 C. Finely Ground Almonds and I added Dried
Cranberries,( any amount you want or other Dried berries.. )
I used 1 Tsp. Almond Extract and 1 Tsp. Vanilla Extract.

This recipe can become your own concoction, always good and so simple to make. The batter is sticky, but
the cookies can be shaped with your hand and spoon. It is quite oily and easy to work with. I prefer
even now to use Olive Oil and Honey instead of Sugar. ( Honey makes a different texture, softer cookie.)
No way can you eat just one or two...lol
I mixed the flour and Ground Almonds together. Next time, I'll try what Sue Lehman said and use the
Ground Almonds as Flour. Thank you, Sue.
Parchment paper makes the job easier too. Let'em cool on the paper before removing.
Bake 350 10-15 min.

I ground some almonds and added 3/4 cups to my usual
amount of flour. I intended to use it as a substitute for
flour, but the batter was too thin. I still only used 1/2
recipe. I also added 1 tsp.almond and 1 tsp. vanilla.This
really made them delish. My thanks to Sue Lehman for
the idea of ground almonds.
Waiting for rain again, still only getting a short shower
but, I'm not complaining, love it.
Blessings Always, GGB
