Fruit Juice Sweetened Peanut Butter Cookies
1 cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour (health food stores carry this)
1-1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt or table salt
1 cup natural Peanut Butter, stirred well
3/4 cup liquid fruit juice reduction (recipe below)
OR
liquid fruit juice concentrate
1 tsp vanilla extract
Position racks in the center and top third of the oven and preheat to 350. Lightly spray 2 large baking sheet with Canola oil spray.
In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt to mix. In another medium bowl, mix the peanut butter, fruit juice concentrate, and vanilla until combined. Reduce the speed to low and gradually beat in the flour mixture just until a soft dough forms.
Using a level tablespoon of dough for each cookie, roll the dough into balls. Place balls 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Using a fork dipped in water to prevent sticking, press a criss-cross pattern into each ball, spreading it out to a 2 inch round.
Bake the cookies until the tops are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Halfway through baking, switch the position of the racks from top to bottom. Cool the cookies for 2 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Makes about 2 dozen. 1 cookie 96 calories, 5g fat
Fruit Juice Reduction
12 ounces frozen white grape juice or apple juice concentrate, unthawed
Place the unthawed juice concentrate in a 1 quart microwave safe container. Microwave on high (100%) until the liquid has reduced to 1 cup, about 12 minutes (700 watt oven). Cool completely before using.
Will keep in refrigerator, covered, for up to 1 week. Bring it to room temperature before using.
Makes 1 cup

Canola oil cooking spray
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

2. Place almonds, flour, paprika, garlic powder, dry mustard, salt and pepper in a food processor; process until the almonds are finely chopped and the paprika is mixed throughout, about 1 minute. With the motor running, drizzle in oil; process until combined. Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish.
