Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond butter
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350º and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add all ingredients to a bowl. Using a heavy spoon, mix the dough all together until fully combined.
  • Roll the dough into heaping tablespoon sized balls and place the dough balls on baking sheet at least 2 inches apart. Press a fork into the middle of the dough ball to flatten, and then remove the fork and repeat to make a cross pattern.
  • Bake the cookies for 12 minutes, or until set on the edges of the cookie.
  • Place the baking sheet on a metal cooling rack and let cool for at least 20 minutes. The cookies will be really soft until they cool.
  • Cookies can be stored at room temperature, covered for 3-5 days.

Notes

  1. The almond butter can be creamy or natural, no-added sugar, sweetened, crunchy or even homemade! They all work well.
  2. Virtually any nut butter or sun butter will also work here, including peanut butter, cashew butter!
  3. This cookie is on the less sweet side. If you'd like a traditionally sweetened cookie, increase the coconut sugar to 1 cup.
