Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- 2 tbsp grass fed butter or ghee melted
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp baking soda
Instructions
- First, add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl or KitchenAid and mix until dough is formed.
- Next, form dough into a ball and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
- Remove dough from fridge and preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place dough between two sheets of parchment paper and use a rolling pin to roll dough out to 1/2 inch thickness.
- Remove top sheet of parchment paper. Using cookie cut outs, cut out dough. Place cookies on baking sheet.
- Continue this process until the dough is used up.
- Next, bake for 6 to 8 minutes, depending on size and shape of cookies.
- Remove pan from oven and allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 3 minutes before carefully transferring them to a cooling rack.
- Finally, once cooled completely, dust with confectioner's sugar if desired.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Mix cookie dough until completely mixed. Be sure there are no clumps of butter left.
- Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes. The longer the dough refrigerates, the easier it is to cut out.
- Since this recipe is made with almond flour, these cookies are slightly softer than traditional cut out sugar cookies.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
