Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth dough forms.
Fold in the almond slices gently to ensure they are evenly distributed within the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Lightly flatten each cookie with the back of a spoon to your desired thickness.
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 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your freshly baked vegan almond cookies or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
