30 Minute Amaretti Cookies: Easy Step-by-step Recipe!

INGREDIENTS

2 1/2 cups of almond flour

1 cup of granulated sugar

1/4 tsp of baking powder

4 large egg whites

1 tsp almond extract

as this is a quick cookie recipe- start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees.

DIRECTIONS

1) Add all dry ingredients to a food processor and mix for a quick min until well combined, then set aside.

2) With a hand mixer- beat the egg whites with almond extract until doubled in size (about 5 mins)

3) Then add in slowly the egg white mixture to dry mixture and pulse until incorporated ( take your time, we did it in three batches) once well incorporated your mixture is ready to shape out on a baking sheet.

4) With your choice of baking sheet- (keep in mind what you are using, you may need a parchment paper- all depending if your pan is non stick or not etc) you can either pipe or hand roll the mixture into a cookie form.

5) Once done, you can add a topping of choice, (we added dried cherries, roasted almond and sliced almonds) as well as choose to roll them in powdered sugar.

6) Bake for 20 mins at 350 degrees or until light golden! (please check on them as everyones oven may vary). once baked, leave to cool for 10 mins before removing from tray!

You can freeze these for up to 3 months in ziplocks or freezer safe containers. these cookies are great for any occasion! they are so soft and chewy! not to mention gluten free too!
