Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup almond flour Make sure it's finely ground.
  • 1 cup gluten-free oat flour Check for gluten-free certification.
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar Can substitute with brown sugar.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon For enhanced flavor.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt Enhances overall taste.
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted Can substitute with vegetable oil.

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract For flavor enhancement.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, gluten-free oat flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Toss them all together until evenly mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well-combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms. It might seem crumbly, but that’s perfectly normal!
  5. Take small amounts of the dough and form little balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Gently flatten them with the back of a fork or your hands.
Baking
  1. Place in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden.
  2. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving
  1. Once cooled, enjoy these treats as is, or add your favorite toppings!

Notes

These cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze them between layers of parchment paper in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for a few seconds before enjoying.
