Description
A delicious recipe for cinnamon sugar cookies featuring almond flour and a hint of vanilla.
Ingredients
Scale
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter (room temperature/softened)
- 1/2 cup brown or coconut sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups almond flour
- 4 teaspoons tapioca starch
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (white, brown or coconut all work)
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl or bowl of a stand mixer, add in the softened butter and sugar. Beat for about 30 seconds or until well combined.
- Add in the egg and vanilla and beat to combine. Mix in the dry ingredients and beat just until combined.
- In a small dish, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Use a two tablespoon scoop and scoop the dough into balls and roll in the cinnamon sugar. Place on the baking sheet, leaving enough room for spreading.
- Bake for 13-16 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the center looks mostly set. They will continue to firm as they cool. As soon as they come out of the oven, I like to swivel with a round cookie cutter to create perfect circles.
- Let cool on the cookie sheet for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
