Ingredients

  • 2 cup almond flour almond meal
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ cup applesauce *
  • 1 cup frosting *

Instructions

  • Set oven to 350º Combine almond flour, baking powder, salt, maple syrup or sugar, applesauce together in a large bowl. Use a spatula to combine. Mix the items together until everything is well mixed. This may take a little time to get the applesauce mixed with the almond flour but it will mix!
  • On a parchment lined cookie sheet, separate dough into six, 2-inch sized blls. Gently press them down a little ( I like to keep them large/ball shaped for more fluff. They need about 1.5 inch between each other. Bake for about 11 - 12 minutes or until the top is crackled and slightly browned.
    Let them completely cool before frosting, almond flour needs to always set longer than other flours when baking! Be sure to gently handle them when frosting. Enjoy right away or keep refrrefrigerated in a sealed container. 

Notes

*I use unsweetened
*I use store bought for this since it's such a small batch needed. You can also use my 2- ingredient icing (1 cup powdered sugar + 2 tsp of almond milk)
