Vegan Almond Flour Cookies - Small Batch
Report
Buttery soft, vegan almond flour cookies are a salty-sweet, melt-in-your-mouth, burst of absolute deliciousness.

Ingredients
- 100 grams almond flour approx. 1 scant cup (not almond meal)
- 1 tablespoon unrefined coconut sugar or brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- 2-3 tablespoons maple syrup start with 2 and increase if needed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F/176°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the almond flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Then add 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and mix well. Use a fork to help get the syrup combined and keep mixing until you have a slightly sticky batter. If needed, add another tablespoon of maple syrup. (If you weigh the flour, 2 tablespoons should do it.)
- Roll the batter into one-inch balls (or use a small cookie scoop) and place them onto your baking sheet, spacing them at least 2 inches apart. You should get 9-10 cookies.
- Bake until the edges are lightly golden, approx. 13-15 minutes and remove them from the oven. Let the cookies cool for at least 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Weigh your flour for the best results. Scooping into a measuring cup can compact the flour and you may end up with more than needed.
- Use slightly wet hands to roll your cookie dough if the batter is sticking to your hands.
- Make sure to use active baking powder in order for these cookies to spread. If you have baking powder that's been open in the pantry for several months, it may lose its effectiveness. If the cookies are not spreading in the oven after 8-10 minutes, press them down gently with the back of a spoon.
- Cookies keep covered at room temperature for 2-3 days, refrigerated for up to 1 week, or freeze airtight for up to 6 months.
- Blanched almond flour will produce cookies that are slightly fluffier and lighter in colour. Unblanched almond flour cookies will be slightly darker in colour, but still delicious.
- You may grind your own almonds in a powerful blender to make flour if you don't have any on hand. However, if your flour is coarse, you will need extra liquid to make up for it. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water or milk until the batter is sticky and holds when rolling into balls.
- I like these cookies salty/sweet but if you’re watching your sodium intake, you may reduce from ¼ teaspoon to ⅛ teaspoon of salt, if preferred.
