Ingredients
- 1/2 cup grass fed butter or ghee room temperature
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 1 1/4 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup macadamia nuts
- dash sea salt
White Chocolate Glaze
- 2 tbsp coconut butter
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp coconut oil
Instructions
- First, add butter and coconut sugar to a mixing bowl or KitchenAid. Beat until combined, about 1 minute on high.
- Then, sift in almond and coconut flour. Stir to combine.
- Add in remaining ingredients (except macadamia nuts). Once combined, fold in macadamia nuts.
- Add dough to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
- When it's time to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop dough. Place balls of dough at least 2 inches apart on parchment lined baking sheet.
- Then, slightly flatten each cookie with your hand.
- Bake for 9 to 10 minutes, or until edges are crispy and middles are set. Remove from oven and cool for 3 minutes on pan before removing to a wire rack.
- Once cooled, make glaze. Add coconut oil to a microwave safe dish and microwave until melted, about 30 seconds. Remove from microwave and immediately add in coconut butter and maple syrup. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Once cookies are cooled, pour glaze on top. Allow glaze to harden before digging in!
Notes
- Do not skip the refrigeration step. This is vital!
- The cookies will spread while baking so space out balls of dough on pan.
- Store cookies covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
