Gingerbread Flowers (vg, from Vegan Cookies Take Over Your Cookie Jar)
Cookie on the left. Might post recipe later, but might not be appropriate, since I did not alter it in the least!

1/2 cup millet flour
1/4 cup ground flax seed
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp ginger (or to taste)
1/8 tsp concentrated stevia powder (or to taste).
1/4 cup almond milk
2 tbs tahini
2 tbs coconut oil, melted
1. Combine almond meal, millet, baking soda and powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and stevia 2. In a separate bowl, mix ground flax and almond milk, letting sit for 5 minutes. Add to flours, along with tahini and melted coconut oil. Add more milk as necessary to create a non-stick dough ball.
3. Refrigerate dough for at least an hour. Then roll out to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out circles. flowers, gingerbread people, whatever. Place on a lined cookie sheet and bake at 350F for 8-12 minutes until beginning to set. Should still be pretty soft.
4. All to cool for a couple of minutes on the tray, before transferring to a cooling rack. Enjoy!
Wellness Weekend has some really marvelous submissions, with a lot of squash involved!

They look great! I'd say that millet is probably one of my all-time favorite GF flours. Mixed with almond meal, it must work beautifully! Sounds like a terrific recipe (and the flowers are so cute!) :) Thanks for submitting to WW this week (and yes, mega squash!).
PS Are you on twitter? If so, let me know so I can include your handle when I tweet your recipes. :)
Awesome! I've been looking for a gluten free gingerbread cookie :-) I'm new to gluten free baking, but I'm pretty sure I have some millet in the pantry I can grind into flour. Woohoo! These are officially on my to-make list for this week!
Hi Veggie V! I should note that the cookies don't taste like gingerbread. If you want to get more of that taste, add in a tsp or two of blackstrap molasses. I just can't eat it right now...
Ricki, thanks for the comment! I am not on twitter (yet?), and I think a FB page would come before that...
