Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 1 unit large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup slivered almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, beating until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the slivered almonds gently.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these delightful almond cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!
