- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/3 cup demerara sugar
- 1 cup natural unsalted almond butter, stirred and chilled
- Optional: 1/4 cup slivered almonds
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, baking soda, and sugar. Then stir in the almond butter and the optional slivered almonds.
Break off small clumps of dough, and form them into balls
the size of cherry tomatoes. Lay the balls about 2 inches apart on a
parchment-lined baking sheet. Use your fingers to flatten each ball just a
little. Put the baking sheet in the refrigerator while you preheat the oven to 350°F.
Bake until cracks form in the tops of the cookies -- 8-10
minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then
transfer to a wire rack. The cookies will firm up as they achieve room temperature.
