I have Nourishing Traditions but don't use it enough for sweets;-) I work with arrowroot for everything that calls for thickening, or as a substitute in baking - like here. Heidi Swanson also has a great chocolate pudding recipe using it. Thank you for posting this recipe.

I've never gotten the dough to hang together though unless I add an egg to it. And for those who now have a bag of arrowroot powder and nothing to do with it - it makes a good substitute for regular flour for dredging stuff like chicken cutlets. You can also use it to thicken sauces. I make these cookies when I get the odd cookie craving and they’re very yummy! I’ve never gotten the dough to hang together though unless I add an egg to it.

I have only used it in gravies. I'm so glad to know it's healthy! I can't remember why I bought it but I'm so glad I did! I wonder if the Asian market sells arrowroot powder. I'll have to check it out. I bought some palm sugar at the Vietnamese market for $1.58 a pound. I have a small bag of arrowroot powder that I boughta lifetime ago. I have only used it in gravies.

Emily, it IS a challenge, isn't it, and so fun when you pull it off! Next time I want to try coconut flour - I'll bet that would be good, too. Squeaky, thanks for the great tip!

I have made things that called for Arrowroot Flour with Arrowroot Powder and it worked, but maybe there is something else I am supposed to be using?

By the description of it being powdery, I would think that arrowroot powder is the same as arrowroot flour? What do you think? I have some of the former - I've always called it arrowroot powder - but perhaps I've been naming it wrong all along! Thanks for sharing your recipe and the notes. Kelly, these look and sound good!

I always purchase my arrowroot flour at the Asian market because it is by far less expensive than when you go to a traditional American market to buy this "specialty flour". Great recipe!
