Almond Flour Cookies


I've been working on using the random ingredients I have stashed away in my freezer and pantry these past couple months, and getting more organized with meal planning. Being more intentional about what we're eating and not just buying groceries and then figuring out what to do with them after the fact. I've gotten into a bad habit of thinking a whole lot of things are "pantry staples" and then things don't always get used in a very timely manner, or at all. 

One of those ingredients is almond flour! I bought several gluten free flours awhile back and haven't really made much of a dent in them. I figured it was time to pull them out, see if they're still good, and see what we can make with them!

My first almond flour recipe is this cookie. I will be honest - I cannot taste ANYTHING right now (well, very little). I'm a week into COVID and healing slowly, but my smell and taste are definitely affected. I am relying very heavily on my family for their input on what needs "edits" right now. I am still enjoying cooking most days - just have no idea what anything tastes like! It's very disconcerting - especially for someone who spends so much time thinking about and creating food. 

I am very much looking forward to these symptoms subsiding and getting back to "normal". 

In the mean time - here are some almond flour cookies which I am told are "good" - and I can tell you the texture is lovely. They hold together well, without being crumbly, the bottom gets nice and crispy and they have a soft and chewy center!

  3. Almond flour cookies are a delicious and gluten-free alternative to traditional wheat-based cookies. These cookies are made using finely ground almonds, resulting in a naturally nutty flavor and a moist, chewy texture. Almond flour is not only a fantastic gluten-free option but also provides a dose of healthy fats, fiber, and protein. When combined with sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, and mixed with ingredients like chocolate chips or dried fruit, almond flour cookies can be a wholesome and satisfying treat... virginia uncontested divorce procedure
