    Almond butter cookies are simple, tasty, and made with only three ingredients! 

    Naturally gluten-free and dairy-free, these flourless almond butter cookies are made in one bowl, require no cookie dough chilling, and are ready in under 30 minutes!

    How to make these cookies:

    Step 1:  Gather and measure the ingredients.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  Interested in making your own almond butter?    Check out this post ->>How to Make Almond Butter.

    Step 2:  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    ingredients for almond butter cookies.

    Step 3:  In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the ingredients and mix well with a spoon or spatula.

    Step 4:  Using a small or medium-sized ice cream scoop, make balls of dough and place on the parchment-lined baking sheet.  Press down the balls to make a round cookie shape and if you desire use a fork to create a criss-cross pattern on the cookies.

    Step 5:  Bake the cookies for about 10 minutes in the oven.  Start checking at about 8 minutes to make sure cookies do not burn.  They’ll be ready when the edges start to turn golden and the bottoms are slightly browned.

    Step 6:  Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5-10 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack.

    Baking Tips:

    • Use an ice cream scoop or tablespoon measure to get uniform sized cookies.
    • Bake until edges and bottoms are slightly golden.
    • Let cookies cool on baking pan for 5 minutes because they will be too soft to move.  They will harden up as they cool.
    • Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract or 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract.

    What can I use to replace almond butter?

    • Peanut butter
    • Cashew butter

    Ingredients
    • 1 cup creamy almond butter (I use a natural brand with no salt)
    • 1 cup sugar (I use coconut sugar, but you can use your favorite).
    • 1 large egg
    Instructions
    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    2. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    3. Gather and measure the ingredients.

    4. Combine all the ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl and stir well.

    5. Drop tablespoons of mixture onto a prepared baking sheet. I use a small ice cream scoop.

    6. Shape the cookies into balls with your hands and flatten. Using a fork create a peanut butter cookie design on the cookies (see photos in post).

    7. Bake for about 10 minutes until edges are slightly golden.

    8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for five minutes. They will be soft and might breakf if you attempt to move them too soon.

    9. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool and firm up.

    10. Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
