Ingredients

Servings

2 cups almond flour – Provides a rich, nutty flavor and gluten-free base for the cookies.

1.2 cup granulated sugar – Adds just the right amount of sweetness.

¹⁄₄ teaspoon salt – Enhances the almond flavor.

1 large egg – Helps bind the ingredients and gives the cookies structure.

Steps For Making Almond Cookies Recipe with Almond Flour

- Preheat the Oven
  Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Combine the Dry Ingredients
  In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sugar, and salt until well combined.
- Add Wet Ingredients
  In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract (if using). Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until a soft dough forms.
- Shape the Cookies
  Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough for each cookie and roll it into a ball. Place the balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently press each ball down with your fingers or the back of a spoon to flatten slightly.
- Add Toppings (Optional)
  For added texture and flavor, press a few sliced almonds on top of each cookie.
- Bake
  Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Keep an eye on them as almond flour can brown quickly.
- Cool
  Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy
  Serve and enjoy your almond cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:

Can I use regular flour instead of almond flour?

This recipe is specifically designed for almond flour, which gives the cookies their unique texture and flavor. Using regular flour would change the consistency and may result in a denser cookie. If you need a substitute, consider using another nut flour, like hazelnut flour.

Are these cookies gluten-free?

Yes! Since almond flour is naturally gluten-free, these cookies are perfect for those avoiding gluten.

Can I make these cookies without eggs?

Yes, you can replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons water) for an egg-free option. This may slightly alter the texture, but the cookies will still hold together well.

Can I make the dough in advance?

Absolutely! You can make the dough and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and shaping.

How should I store the cookies?

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, place them in an airtight container and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
