Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  • 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.
