Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups (4.9 oz.) almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 Tablespoons maple sugar (or coconut sugar or date sugar) *
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt *
Wet Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup natural peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F, center rack.
- Line a large baking sheet with silicone pads or parchment paper, set aside.
- Place the all the Dry Ingredients into a large bowl, whisk to combine. Set aside.
- Mix all the Wet Ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly by hand with a stiff spoon to incorporate all the ingredients. At first it will seem like the batter is too dry and won’t come together, keep mashing the wet peanut butter mixture into the dry ingredients, scrape down the spoon and the sides of the bowl, stir and mix intently.
- Using a small-sized cookie scoop (1 tablespoon), scoop out the dough batter and roll into a ball and place onto the cookie sheet. * Continue until all the dough has been rolled into balls, spacing approximately 3 to 4 inches apart as the batter does spread slightly while baking. Then with a fork, slightly flatten each ball creating a crisscross pattern. Repeat with all the remaining cookie balls.
- Place in a 350 F preheated oven for 8 to 9 minutes (largely dependent upon the size of the cookies) or until set, the bottoms are lightly browned.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes to set, then move them to a cooling rack using a thin-edged spatula. Allow to cool for 15 minutes, then enjoy!
