How to Make Aeden's Apple Spice Almond Cookies Scd

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Peel and finely grate the apple. Wrap the grated apple in a clean kitchen towel or several layers of paper towels and squeeze out as much excess juice as possible. Discard the juice.
  4. Add the squeezed apple pulp to the dry ingredients. Mix well.
  5. In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and honey until light and fluffy.
  6. Beat in the egg until well combined.
  7. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  8. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
  10. Immediately after baking, transfer the baking sheets to the freezer for 5 minutes to firm up the cookies.
  11. Carefully remove the cookies from the baking sheets and place them in a single layer between sheets of wax paper to cool completely.
  12. Once completely cool, store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage.
