Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups or 192g (6.8 oz) fine almond flour
  • 1/2 cup or 113g (4 oz) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup or 85g (3 oz) honey
  • 1 tablespoon or 15ml (0.5 fl oz) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon or 3g (0.11 oz) salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon or 1g (0.04 oz) baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon or 1g (0.04 oz) ground cinnamon
  • For a richer, nuttier flavor, toast the almond flour in a dry skillet over medium heat for 3-5 minutes before using. Let it cool completely first.
  • The dough can be chilled for 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading and deepen the flavor.
  • Feel free to add 1/2 cup (480 ml) of mix-ins like dark chocolate chips, chopped pecans, or dried cranberries for extra texture and taste.
  • These cookies are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F or 175°C (350°F).
  3. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  4. In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the softened butter and honey together until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in the vanilla extract.
  6. In a separate, smaller bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet , mixing on low speed until just combined and a soft dough forms.
  8. Do not overmix.
  9. Use a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon to drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared cookie sheets, placing them about 2 inches apart.
  10. Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. The centers may still look soft.
  11. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
