6 tablespoons unsalted butter, barely melted
5 tablespoons sunflower oil
3/4 to 1 teaspoon ground cardamom

6.88 ounces brown rice flour (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons finely chopped pistachios

Instructions

Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Gradually add flour and salt to butter mixture, beating just until combined. Divide dough into 2 equal portions. Shape each portion into a 6-inch log. Wrap logs individually in plastic wrap; refrigerate 12 to 24 hours.

Sprinkle with pistachios. Bake at 350 ° for 17 minutes or until edges begin to brown, rotating pans halfway through. Let stand 5 minutes; place cookies on a wire rack. Cool completely.
