Instructions

Notes
- You can sprinkle chopped almonds or mini chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough for added texture and crunch.
- Natural almond butter can be replaced with other nut butters, such as sunflower seed butter or cashew butter.
- If you prefer a fluffier cookie, add a little baking soda or baking powder to the batter.
- For a nuttier flavor, include almond flour instead of coconut flour.
- Include sugar-free peanut butter instead of almond butter to make peanut butter cookies.
