Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 5 tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot, baking soda, and sea salt.
  • Add the coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla extract, and stir until completely combined.
  • Divide the dough in half. Place each dough half onto 2 separate sheets of parchment paper to roll into 2 thin logs measuring 8 inches long x 1 inch round, using your hands to form the logs as you roll.
  • Label and wrap with plastic wrap or place in a container, reusable silicone bag, or plastic bag before placing in the freezer to store.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Unwrap the dough and cut into ½-inch thick slices. Place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment or a silicone baking mat. Bake for 6 minutes or until golden brown. If baking from frozen, add 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove and place on a wire rack to cool.
