Sugar Cookies

Ingredients:

• 1 1/3 cups almond flour
• 1/4 cup tapioca starch
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp melted coconut oil
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1 tsp alcohol-free vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup maple sugar, to coat

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Like a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Combine the almond flour, tapioca starch, and baking powder in a medium sized bowl. Whisk until evenly mixed.

Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir until you get a smooth, firm dough. Add more almond flour if needed in the dough is too wet. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. 

Scoop dough using a tablespoon-measure into balls, then coat in maple sugar. Arrange balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 3 inches between them. Press down with the bottom of a drinking glass until 1/3 inch to 1/2 inch thick. 

Bake for 9-11 minutes until the edges are golden but the center is still soft. Best enjoyed on the day of baking and kept in an airtight container until needed.

Makes 16-18 cookies
