Ingredients

Scale

Cookies

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/8 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1/8 cup pure maple syrup or honey, if not vegan
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract

Jam


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  2. Mix together coconut oil, sweetener, vanilla extract and almond extract. Mix well until creamed. Slowly add almond flour and salt until you form a large doughy ball.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silicon mat. Scoop tablespoons of the dough and roll into balls. If you’re using walnuts, roll the balls in the walnuts now. Place evenly onto the baking sheet.
  4. Make an imprint in the centre of each cookie with your thumb. Fill each imprint with jam, about ½ – 1 teaspoon.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes at 350 F or until lightly browned.  
  6. Let cool completely on a wire cooling rack.
  7. Serve solo, or with vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
