Recipe By: Madeline
Prep: 45 minutesCook: 18 minutesTotal: 1 hour 3 minutes
Servings: 15 cookies 1x

Ingredients

  • 1 egg – room temperature
  • 1/4 cup melted and cooled coconut oil
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp almond extract
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • Optional – colorful sugar for decorating

Instructions

  1. Add the egg, coconut oil, sugar, and almond extract to a bowl and whisk to combine
  2. Add almond flour, salt, and baking soda to the bowl and fold in with a spatula – if its difficult to mix you can use your hands to knead the dough together
  3. Place the dough in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, preheat oven to 350F and pour decorating sugars into shallow bowls to roll cooking dough in
  5. Remove the cookie dough from the refrigerator, scoop out a heaping tbsp of dough and roll into a tight ball
  6. Roll that dough ball in the decorating sugar and place on the baking sheet – if you are skipping the decorating sugar you can place the dough balls directly on the baking sheet
  7. Once you have rolled all the dough into balls, bake at 350F for 18 minutes
  8. Remove from the oven and cool on cooling rack
