Ghriba Healthy. Ghriba are a dry cookie, ideal for dunking in a coffee or drinking alongside tea. But, they have a sandy texture that some people just don't like. I never made authentic ghriba because MarocBaba couldn't eat them (he has celiac disease) so instead I made a few different kinds of ghriba that were similar to the real deal but were all gluten free.
When it comes to ghriba, the flavoring possibilities are endless. The most popular varieties are almond, coconut and walnut. Alternatively, melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set. You can cook Ghriba Healthy using 9 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you achieve that.

These Moroccan Walnut Cookies (Ghriba) are chewy, nutty, and highly addictive. Mediterranean countries love their nut-based treats: amoretti, kataifi, Greek butter cookies, and almost every country has their variation on baklava. I am including the Traditional Basic Ghriba recipe here as well, so this Moroccan Almond Cookies variation, although it takes some poetic license, is a welcome change of pace, in terms of both shape and ingredients. These melt-in-your-mouth Almond cookies are totally suitable for gluten-free and are vegan without even trying.

Ghriba is the delightful Moroccan Shortbread Cookie we grew up. While this recipe is inspired and adapted from a Moroccan version in the New York Times by Nargisse Benkabbo, ghriba are found in many parts of the Arab world, and are usually a round shortbread cookie that usually includes almonds (and often orange flower water or rose water). To make them, you have to roll the dough into little walnut shaped balls. Some prefer to flatten the top and create dents while others will leave as is. Presentation: These cookies taste amazing with Moroccan tea.
