Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond butter Creamy is easiest; crunchy works too.
- 1/2 cup Sugar White, brown, or coconut sugar can be used.
- 1 large Egg Room temperature recommended.
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract Optional but recommended for flavor.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, stir almond butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla until it forms a thick, glossy dough.
- Scoop the dough into small balls, about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons each.
- Place the balls on the baking sheet and gently flatten them with your fingers or the back of a fork.
Baking
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. The edges should look set, while the middle may still look a bit soft.
- Cool on the tray for at least 10 minutes to allow them to firm up without drying out.
Notes
For best results, do not overbake. Cookies can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 4 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for emergency cookie cravings.
