Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups almond flour
- 0.5 cup protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 0.25 cup honey or agave syrup
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, protein powder, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, honey (or agave syrup), egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and roll them into balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each ball gently with your hands or the back of a spoon to form a cookie shape.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy the cookies warm or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
