Soft and chewy cookies…with a crunch! These vegan and gluten free cookies require only a handful of ingredients, and they’re so sparkly thanks to a sugary coating!

Ingredients

  • 1 and 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 3/4 tsp. baking soda
  • pinch salt
  • 3 Tbsp. coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup almond butter (I used Barney Butter Crunchy!)*
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 Tbsp. vanilla
  • 3/4 cup quick oats**
  • 1/4 cup Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1/2 cup raw cane sugar***

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, mix almond flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a smaller bowl, add coconut oil and almond butter. Melt in the microwave, about 30 seconds. Add maple syrup and vanilla, and mix to combine.
  4. Add your wet ingredients to your dry ingredients, and then mix in both the quick oats and the rolled oats. The dough will be wet and soft.
  5. Measure out 2 Tbsp. dough per cookie and shape your cookies into a flat circle.
  6. Add your raw cane sugar to a small bowl. Coat each cookie in the sugar, and then place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 9 minutes.
  7. Remove your cookies from the oven and press each of the cookies down slightly with a flat surface, like the back of a measuring cup. Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, and then move your cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  8. Store in an air-tight container. I’m a huge fan of cookies straight from the fridge, but you can store them at room temperature as well.

Notes

*I suggest using an almond butter that isn’t drippy.

**Use gluten free quick oats if necessary. You can also MAKE quick oats with your old fashioned oats. Just measure out 1 cup of rolled oats and place them in a blender or food processor. Pulse the oats a few times until slightly broken down and until they look like quick oats!

***I’m thinking you can also use coconut sugar here! The cookies will be a bit darker because of the color of the coconut sugar, but I think it would work perfectly. I haven’t tried it, so be sure to let us know in the comments if you do!
