Gluten Free Almond Flour Cookies
These gluten free almond flour cookies are one of the easiest bakes you can make. With just three simple ingredients - almond flour, maple syrup and coconut oil - they come together in minutes and are naturally gluten free, dairy free and vegan.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1½ cups almond flour (150g)
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 3 tbsp melted coconut oil
Optional:
- 2 tbsp flaked or chopped almonds for topping
- 50 g dark chocolate melted (for dipping)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F (160C fan oven). Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Add the almond flour, maple syrup and melted coconut oil to a medium bowl. Mix well until a soft dough forms.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and gently shape into balls, then flatten slightly into a cookie shape on the tray. They don't need to be very flat, just slightly.
- If using, press a few chopped almonds on top.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes, until lightly golden around the edges. Leave to cool completely on the tray, they will firm up as they cool.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
- Freeze for up to 2 months and defrost before serving.
- Almond flour and ground almonds work the same here, just make sure they are finely ground for the best texture.
