About Almond cookie
Almond Cookies are a sweet treat with origins in Chinese cuisine, commonly enjoyed during holidays like Lunar New Year. Made primarily from almond flour or ground almonds, sugar, butter, egg, and a touch of vanilla or almond extract, these cookies feature a crisp texture and a nutty, aromatic flavor. Almonds are a nutritious ingredient, rich in healthy fats, protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like vitamin E and magnesium, contributing to heart health and satiety. However, traditional recipes often include high amounts of sugar and butter, which can elevate the calorie and saturated fat content. For a healthier variation, recipe adjustments can include reducing sugar, using a plant-based butter alternative, or incorporating whole-wheat flour. Nonetheless, Almond Cookies are a delightful way to enjoy the earthy sweetness of almonds in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
