Description

These 3 Ingredient Almond Butter Cookies are quick and easy to make, featuring a delightful almond butter flavor with a crisp, golden finish. Perfect for a simple, satisfying treat with minimal ingredients and fuss.


Ingredients

Units Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy almond butter (I recommend using no-stir almond butter like Barney smooth almond butter))
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, light or golden (not packed)
  • white sugar (as needed for finishing)

Instructions

  1. Prep. Pre heat oven to 340°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. Make dough. Add almond butter, egg and brown sugar into a medium bowl and beat using an electric beater for 30 to 40 seconds or until mixed well. It will be crumbly yet moist.
  3. Roll into balls. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough, roll it into a ball, and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Press with fork. Place some white sugar in a small bowl, dip a fork into the sugar, and gently press each dough ball to flatten, creating a crisscross pattern. Space the cookies about an inch apart.
  5. Bake. Bake in the preheated oven for 14–18 minutes, or the cookies turn a deep golden color, being careful not to overbake as this can cause excessive browning on the bottoms.
  6. Cool. Place the baking pan on a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies will be soft when hot, but they will crisp and firm up as they cool.

Notes

  • The cookies will be soft when hot but will crisp and firm up as they cool.
  • Be careful not to overbake to avoid excessive browning on the bottoms.
