Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, combine the teff flour, salt, and cinnamon. Then add the almond butter, maple syrup, coconut oil (make sure it has cooled), and almond and vanilla extracts. Stir with a rubber spatula until well combined. Allow dough to rest for 5 minutes.
  • Use a tablespoon or #40 cookie scoop, then roll cookie dough into small balls with your hands and place on prepared baking sheet. With a fork, flatten balls about halfway down into a cookie shape. Sprinkle cookies with sea salt.
  • Bake for 10-11 minutes. Remove from baking tray and allow to cool on baking sheet on a wire rack.

Notes

To store: Stored at room temperature will create softer cookies over time, storing them in the refrigerator will give them a little more of a bite. Store cookies in an airtight container for 5-6 days.
It is important to let the dough rest for about 5 minutes before rolling into balls. This will allow for the flour to absorb some of the mixture.
A little sprinkle of sea salt on top right before baking is highly recommended!
