The Best and Easiest Almond Flour Cookies
Katrina found this recipe on the Power Hungry website and made these cookies for her family-they loved them! So easy, fits most dietary needs and delicious even if you don't have any. Below are the details directly from the Power Hungry Website. Enjoy!
These are the cookies I want, and I am pretty certain you will want them, too.
Because they are perfect.
And ridiculously easy. The dough takes roughly 1 minute to prepare (that’s averaging up) with the help of nothing more than a medium-size bowl and a spoon.
The texture? Tender and crisp-chewy, similar to a macaron, but more substantial. The sweetness? Spot on (not too much, nor too little). And buttery? Very buttery, in fact, despite having no butter, or added oil of any kind.
These cookies are not ersatz, health-food imposters. Anything but that. Serve them to gourmet friends, traditionalist cookie aficionados, children (big and small), significant others, friends, neighbors, health-conscious acquaintances, and co-workers.
They will love them.

Keto (with one simple substitution-use monk fruit sugar instead)
RECIPE
1 cup (112 g) blanched almond flour (not almond meal)
3 tablespoons coconut sugar (see notes for keto, & other, options)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Optional: 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 tablespoons water
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350F (175C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk the almond flour, coconut sugar, baking powder and (optional) salt (breaking up all lumps in the flour). Add the water and stir until blended.
Drop by scant tablespoons (I use a small cookie scoop, which is just shy of a tablespoon) on the prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 13 to 16 minutes until golden brown and set at the centers.
Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack and cool completely.
