Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven to 375 Degrees F and Line A Baking Sheet with Parchment Paper.
- Mix Together All Ingredients in A Large Bowl Using A Wooden Spoon to Start and then Using (Clean) Hands to Bring the Batter Completely Together if Needed.
- Portion Out 2-Tablespoon Sized Balls of Dough, Place Onto the Prepared Baking Sheet, and Press Down Until 1/4-1/2 inch Thick. Space them About an inch Apart—they won’t Spread, so Close is Okay.
