I have made these several years in a row for halloween and they are ALWAYS a hit. I intended to share the recipe last year and ran out of time!  So, here you go my FAVORITE, simple and fun spooky finger recipe that will work on both a gluten free or paleo diet.  I have seen people use almonds as fingernails as well- but I opted for pepperoni since we all know that pepperoni goes great with breadsticks.

If you want your breadsticks to take on a cheesy flavor- you can add shredded cheese  (dairy or nondairy) to the dough and sprinkled on top!

Grain Free Spooky Breadstick Fingers

 

• 2 packed cups of blanched almond four
• 1 cup of Tapioca or Arrowroot starch
• 1 1/2 Tbs Baking Powder
• 1 Tsp. Garlic Powder
• 1 Tsp. Salt

• 3 Large Eggs
• 1/4 Cup Milk (dairy or nondairy)
• 2 Tbs oil or melted butter (dairy or nondairy)
• 1 Tbs Whole Psyllium Husks
• 1/2 Tsp. Vinegar or Lemon Juice
• Pepperoni cut into the shape of nails.

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place a sheet of parchment on a  cookie sheet. Lightly oil the parchment and set aside.
2. In a large bowl whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot, baking powder, salt and garlic powder. In a second smaller bowl whisk together the eggs, milk, psyllium husk and vinegar. Add the liquid mixture to the dry and mix until well incorporated.
3. Oil your hands and form breadsticks- and then press a pepperoni fingernail in place.
4. Place in oven and bake 14-15 minutes.
