Green bean powder (also called hoon kueh flour) is a nutrient rich flavored powder typically used to make pastries such as steamed buns and mooncakes and cold drinks such as milk teas, slushies, and smoothies; available at Asian markets, some healthfood stores, and online.
Ingredients:
6 tablespoons green bean powder
3/4 cup flour
5 1/2 tablespoons almond flour (almond powder)
1/2 cup butter, softened (1 stick)
4 1/2 tablespoons sugar or 4 1/2 tablespoons splenda sugar substitute
1/2 tablespoon light corn syrup
3 tablespoons peanut butter (smooth or chunky) or 3 tablespoons your favorite nut butter
Directions:
1. In a bowl, whisk green bean powder, regular flour, and almond flour; set aside.

3. Add corn syrup, and beat well.
4. Add peanut butter, and beat well.
5. Preheat oven to 350°F.
