Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Unsweetened almond flour
- 2 large Egg whites
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Almond extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 0.25 cup Sliced almonds
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking powder, and pinch of salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy but not stiff. Add the honey, vanilla extract, and almond extract, and mix until well incorporated.
Step 4
Slowly add the wet mixture into the dry mixture, stirring until a sticky dough forms.
Step 5
Using a teaspoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 6
Gently press a few sliced almonds on top of each cookie for added texture and presentation.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake to keep the cookies soft and chewy.
Step 8
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
