• 3 TBSP almond meal
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1/2 tsp sea salt

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375

Combine all flours, almond meal, baking powder, sugar and salt.

In a small bowl, mix egg. Combine with melted butter, apple sauce and milk. (The apple sauce is what makes them soft :).

Use a medium sized cookie scoop to scoop cookie dough onto a baking sheet.

For almond-sugar coating:
Sombine almond meal, powdered sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl.

Use a pastry brush to lightly coat each cookie in butter, now sprinkle with the almond-sugar coating.

Bake in a preheated oven at 375 for 15-18 minutes. Allow cookies to cook completely before eating :).
