It’s so easy to fall in love with these Easy Almond Butter Cookies! This is another recipe that we made for our daughter’s BFF that has dietary allergies and the cookies are just wonderful!
Creamy Almond Butter Cookies with a hint of honey sweetness and topped with organic sugar granules.
We took them to our daughter Lauren’s class a few days ago for the end of the school year, along with three other varieties of cookies, and these are the only ones that were all eaten up.
To Make Your Almond Butter Cookies…
These very quick and easy cookies are made by combining the almond butter, sugar, egg, honey, and almond extract in a medium bowl and mixing them until smooth.
Then add the almond flour and mix enough to incorporate it into the wet ingredients.
Spoon out the dough with a tablespoon and roll into balls, then roll through the second portion of sugar in a small dish or plate.
Arrange the sugar coated dough balls onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet with about two inches of spacing between the dough balls, as well as the sides of the baking sheet.
Use a fork and press the tines down on the top of the cookies to make the crossed pattern.
Bake the almond butter cookies at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown and no longer have a wet appearance.
These cookies will be soft when they are removed from the oven, so allow them to set on the baking sheet for 2-3 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
Enjoy these cookies as soon as they are cool enough to eat 🙂
