  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil (melted)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional:

  • powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In another bowl, mix the honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until well combined.
