Even more impressive and far healthier than the recreations of Girl Scout
cookies are Gluten Free Girl's
nostalgic attempt at making the Fig Newtons she loved so much as a little girl. While she admits that Fig Newtons
weren't really that good, she still misses them in her new gluten-free lifestyle. She couldn't find a recipe, so she
made one up. Her fig spread, which includes port, pomegranate juice, and Meyer lemon juice, couldn't be lusher. Her
dough is a butter cookie base with white rice flour, millet flour, cornstarch and teff flour. And lots and lots of
nutmeg. It sounds wonderful! And hypo-allergenic. Who'da thunk it.
