Ingredients
- 2cups almond flour
- 1/4cup tapioca flour
- 1/4tsp salt
- 1/4tsp baking soda
- 1/4cup coconut sugar
- 1/2cup organic palm shortening or coconut oilavailable at most grocers
- 1 egg
- 1 TBSP pure vanilla extract
- 2tsp pure almond extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a separate bowl, melt palm shortening (or coconut oil).
- Stir in vanilla, egg and almond extracts.
- Add to dry ingredients and stir until combined, the dough will be a bit crumbly.
- Form into a ball and place between 2 pieces of parchment paper. Roll out to about 1/4″ thick and cut into desired shapes.
- *Note: If you’re short on time, or just don’t feel like rolling the cookies out, you can just form them individually by hand and flatten them. However, I think they taste better being rolled out flat…and they look prettier. =)
- Place onto baking sheet and bake for 6-9 minutes. Mine took 8. Let cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes before removing to cool on a rack. Enjoy!
