Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup agave nectar
- 2 Tbsp. finely grated lemon zest
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
- 1 1/2 cups chopped raw pistachios
Directions
- Step 1In a medium bowl, whisk together butter, agave, zest, vanilla, and egg. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Add butter mixture to flour mixture and stir until well combined. Cover and chill dough until cold and firm, 2 to 4 hours.
- Step 2Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place pistachios in a medium bowl.
- Step 3Working in batches, form each cooking by shaping about 2 tablespoons dough into a ball and rolling in pistachios to coat. Arrange on prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake until puffed and golden brown on the bottom, 13 to 15 minutes. (Refrigerate unshaped dough between batches.) Set cookies aside to let cool, then serve. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container up to 2 days.
