Ingredients
Method
- In a large bowl, stir together the almond flour, sugar, and salt. Add the egg whites, almond extract, and vanilla extract, then mix until a thick, sticky dough forms.
- Scoop 2-tablespoon portions of dough, roll into balls, then coat each ball in the sliced almonds. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart and flatten slightly.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, until the edges are just turning golden and the tops look dry and set.
- Let the cookies rest on the hot sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
The cookies will feel soft when you pull them from the oven, but they firm into a chewy, tender cookie as they cool. If you like a little extra crunch, press a few extra sliced almonds onto the tops before baking.
