2 1/2 c all-purpose flour

Brown the Butter: Melt the butter over medium-low heat. Stirring constantly, until it turns a deep amber color. And has a nutty aroma. Let it cool for 20-30 minutes.
Prepare for Baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make the Dough: In a stand mixer, combine the cooled butter with both sugars. Mix for 1 minute. Then add the honey, egg, vanilla, sea salt, and baking soda. Mix until smooth. Gradually add the flour. Mixing until just combined. Then fold in the pistachios. And white chocolate chips.
Bake the Cookies: Scoop the dough onto the baking sheet. Spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8 minutes. Until the edges are lightly golden.
Cool and Enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Before transferring to a wire rack. If desired, sprinkle with flaked sea salt.
Notes
To make these Sweet and Salty Pistachio Honey Cookies gluten-free. Simply swap out the all-purpose flour. For a high-quality gluten-free flour blend. That contains xanthan gum. Which helps mimic the texture of gluten. Ensure your baking soda. And any other ingredients, like the chocolate chips. Are certified gluten-free as well. The end result will be just as delicious. With the same perfect balance of sweet. And salty flavors. And a chewy, satisfying texture. That everyone will love.
