Ingredients

    ¼ cup dried cherries
    ¼ cup quinoa flour
    ¼ cup sweet rice flour
    ¼ cup millet flour
    ¼ cup white rice flour
    ¼ cup yellow corn flour (not cornstarch)
    ¾ cup coconut flour
    ½ tsp ginger
    ½ tsp salt
    1 tsp powdered stevia
    2/3 cup canola oil
    ¼ cup cherry syrup (like from from Benjamin Twiggs ( http://www.benjamintwiggs.com/product_info.php?products_id=67 )) or apple cider syrup
    ½ cup Michelle’s Miracle® Tart Cherry Concentrate
    ¼ cup ground pecans
    1/3 cup diced candied cherries
    ¼ cup diced dried pineapple
    2/3 cup shredded coconut

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F, line 2 baking sheets with parchment, SilPat or foil.
Place dried cherries in a deep bowl and cover with boiling water. Let sit 15 minutes, then drain.
In a medium bowl, whisk together all the flours, ginger, salt, and stevia.
Add oil, syrup and cherry juice to the dry ingredients and stir well to combine (it will be very stiff).
Add cherries, pecans, candied cherries, pineapple and coconut and mix in thoroughly. Batter will loosen up as it works.
Roll small balls from the dough and flatten slightly. Place on prepared sheets (they don't spread so you can place fairly close together).
Bake for 10 minutes. Cool completely on the sheets.
