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
- Add the egg, coconut oil, sugar, and almond extract to a bowl and whisk to combine
- 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
- Place the dough in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, preheat oven to 350F and pour decorating sugars into shallow bowls to roll cooking dough in
- Remove the cookie dough from the refrigerator, scoop out a heaping tbsp of dough and roll into a tight ball
- 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
- Once you have rolled all the dough into balls, bake at 350F for 18 minutes
- Remove from the oven and cool on cooling rack
