Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Almond extract
- 1 large Egg
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 cup Ground almond flour
- 0.25 cup Sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) 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.
Add the almond extract and egg to the butter mixture, beating well until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and ground almond flour.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Fold in the sliced almonds to evenly distribute them throughout the dough.
Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your Low Sodium Delicious Almond Cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!
