Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and sea salt. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula or your hands until a dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but hold together well.
Roll the dough into a log shape and wrap it in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to firm up.
Once chilled, slice the dough into 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) thick rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 13-15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning.
Remove cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
