GF Boterkoek

Okay, so for the past few days I have been trying to figure out a way to make a good boterkoek but gluten-free...and I think I have found it! :) My mom decided on the measurements (So I must admit not everything is my idea) ;)

9" Round Pie Plate

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups white rice flour
1/4 cup almond flour
1/4 cup tapioca starch
1 tsp xanthan gum
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp almond extract
3/4 cup butter-softened
1 egg

Directions:

1. Mix the white rice flour, almond flour, tapioca starch, xanthan gum, baking powder, and sugar.
2. Beat the egg in a cup and save a tiny bit to rub on the top of the boterkoek.
3. In an electric mixer, mix the butter, egg and flour mixture together until it forms a ball.
4. In a round pie plate spread and press the dough down evenly. Then rub the remaining egg on top.

One is gluten free and the other is made with wheat! (but i think one tastes better but that's probably because I can't actually compare and the last time I had a regular piece of boterkoek was probably 6 months ago ;)
