FAQS

  1. How do I make cranberry almond cookies with Greek yogurt chips from scratch?

    To make cranberry almond cookies with Greek yogurt chips, start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). In a bowl, mix together 2.25 cups of all-purpose flour and baking soda. In a separate large bowl, beat 1 cup of room temperature butter with 0.5 cup of caster sugar and 1 cup of brown sugar until fluffy. Add 2 eggs, 2 tsp of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, mixing well. Gradually add the flour mixture, then fold in 0.75 cup of dried cranberries, 0.75 cup of Greek yogurt baking chips, and 0.5 cup of chopped roasted almonds. Scoop tablespoon-sized balls onto a lined baking sheet and bake for about 12 minutes.

  2. Are cranberry almond cookies with Greek yogurt chips suitable for a gluten-free diet?

    Unfortunately, the traditional recipe for cranberry almond cookies with Greek yogurt chips is not gluten-free due to the use of all-purpose flour. However, you can substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend to make them suitable for a gluten-free diet. Just ensure that the baking soda you use is also gluten-free.

  3. What can I substitute for Greek yogurt baking chips in the cookie recipe?

    If you can't find Greek yogurt baking chips, you can substitute them with white chocolate chips or even dark chocolate chips for a different flavor. Alternatively, you could use yogurt-covered raisins for a similar taste and texture.

  4. How should I store leftover cranberry almond cookies with Greek yogurt chips?

    To store leftover cranberry almond cookies, let them cool completely, then place them in an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, consider freezing them. Just make sure to layer them with parchment paper in a freezer-safe container to prevent sticking.

  5. What drinks pair well with cranberry almond cookies with Greek yogurt chips?

    Cranberry almond cookies with Greek yogurt chips pair beautifully with a variety of drinks. Consider serving them with a warm cup of tea, such as chamomile or chai, or a glass of milk for a classic combination. For a festive touch, a cranberry juice cocktail or a light sparkling wine can also complement the flavors nicely.
