Directions to Follow
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add the oat flour, flaxseed, cinnamon, and salt, then stir until the dough comes together. If it feels too soft, gradually add more oat flour until it’s manageable.
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie, roll into balls, and place them on the baking sheet.
- Flatten slightly using a fork or your fingers, as they won’t spread much during baking.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Let them cool on the baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
