Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps in the almond flour.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, and almond extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. The dough should be moist but not sticky.
Fold in the sliced almonds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each mound of dough slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon to form a cookie shape.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these Paleo Delicious Almond Cookies with a warm cup of tea or as a sweet snack any time of the day.
