How to Make Amaretti Cookies No Flour And Low Fat

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment paper with butter or cooking spray.
  3. In a food processor, finely grind 1 ½ cups of blanched almonds in two batches to avoid overheating.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the ground almonds, 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon almond extract. Mix well.
  5. Gently fold in 3 large egg whites, one at a time, until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Using a teaspoon, drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Avoid overbaking.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
