Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until a dough forms.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the dough and shape them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each ball.
Gently flatten each ball with the palm of your hand, then press a few sliced almonds on top of each biscuit.
Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown around the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your gluten-free classic almond biscuits!
