Gluten-free Vanilla Almond Cookies- RECIPE

in #photography6 years ago

Hey foodies!

Hope you're all doing great! Today I have a new recipe for you for these delicious GF cookies made with almond flour and shredded coconut. Yum!

Lately, I’ve been experimenting and creating new recipes and I’m really excited about this one. These cookies require only 6 ingredients! They are super simple to make and they’re soooo delicious. I can never resist a good chocolate-coconut combo. In combination with vanilla and almond flour, it works just perfectly.

 I love these cookies with melted chocolate and lemon or orange zest on top but it’s up to you what you’ll use for topping.


INGREDIENTS

10 cookies

  • 1 cup almond flour (or ground almond)
  • 2/3 cup dried shredded coconut
  • 3/4 tsp vanilla extract (or 1 tsp vanilla sugar)
  • 1 egg
  • 2-3 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • 6 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil

Topping:

  • 60 g dark chocolate, for drizzling
  • Optional:  orange or lemon zest, for sprinkling on top

DIRECTIONS

  1. Set the oven to 356 F / 180ºC.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine almond flour and coconut. Then add melted butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, egg and mix all the ingredients together. Add more coconut if needed.
  3. With wet hands, form the dough into individual cookies and place them onto parchment-lined baking tray. Bake for about 10 minutes. Let them cool completely on the baking tray.
  4. Melt the chocolate over a hot-water bath, stirring occasionally. Then pour the chocolate over the cookies and sprinkle with lemon or orange zest. Enjoy!
