  5. Add in plantain and applesauce puree (or banana puree) to dry ingredients.

  20. Let cool slightly before topping with more raw cookie dough to be the glaze on top.

Notes

Can use any gluten-free flour blend of your liking.
If you can’t do plantains replace them another cup of gluten-free flour or almond meal. Note you might have to adjust more or less buttermilk.
We did 1/4 cup coconut sugar in the batter and they came out, but we reduced to 2 tablespoons and still had success.
Also made it with 5 1/4oz plantain and they still came out.
*** Our GF blend contains coconut flour. So if yours does not you may need to adjust buttermilk in recipe as coconut flour absorbs liquid!!!
