Gluten-Free Almond Cookies
Ingredients
- 4 cups almond flour
- 2½ cups granulated sugar
- Zest from 1 lemon
- Zest from 1 orange
- ¾ cup egg whites
- 2 tablespoons almond extract
- ¼ cup sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Add first 4 ingredients to a bowl and combine well. Place egg whites in a standing mixer and whip until soft peaks form. Add dry ingredients together with the almond extract into the whipped eggs and gently mix with a paddle attachment until a soft dough is formed. Scoop the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet with a 1-tablespoon scoop, leaving room for the cookies to spread as they bake. Dust the cookies with sugar and bake at 325°F for 14 minutes.
