Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 cups almond flour blanched
  • 2 teaspoons matcha powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • teaspoon salt fine sea salt
  • 5 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil (melted)
  • ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 20 chocolate chips
  • 20 almonds sliced

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine the almond flour, matcha, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Use a whisk to stir the dry ingredients, breaking up any clumps. Add the maple syrup, coconut oil, and peppermint extract and stir until the batter looks uniform.
  3. Use a tablespoon to scoop the dough and then roll it between your hands to form a log about the size of your index finger. Place this on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining cookie dough, making about 20 cookies.
  4. Use your finger to create an indent in each log approximately where the knuckles on a finger would be. You can also use a knife to add "wrinkles" to the finger-shaped cookies.
  5. Press a chocolate chip into one end of each cookie. Bake the cookies at 350ºF until lightly golden around the edges, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  6. When you remove the pan, immediately press a sliced almond over each warm chocolate chip. The melted chocolate will hold the almond in place as it cools. Let the cookies cool on the pan completely; then they are ready to serve.
  7. These cookies can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 days, but for best shelf life, keep them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • Nutrition information is for one cookie, assuming you get 20 total from this batch. This information is automatically calculated using generic ingredients, so it's just an estimate, not a guarantee.
  • Feel free to use any other shortbread cookie recipe with this tutorial. Cookies made with eggs could spread as they bake, so I recommend using a shortbread recipe for the best results.
