Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease or line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut sugar, baking powder, salt and vanilla extract.
Step 3
Mix well until a smooth dough forms.
Step 4
Using your hands or a spoon, take about one rounded tablespoon portion of dough at a time and roll it into a ball. Place this on the prepared baking sheet, then repeat with remaining dough.
Step 5
Using a fork, press a criss-cross pattern into each round of dough while slightly flattening them. If the fork sticks, wet it with water before pressing.
Step 6
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are firm and turning golden.
Step 7
Let the cookies cool for at least ten minutes before serving (they will continue to firm up while cooling). Optionally sprinkle with flaked salt before serving. Enjoy!
