No Christmas party or holiday meal is complete without these gluten free Almond Butter Cookies. They make a great substitute for traditional Christmas cookies, which are often loaded with refined sugars, gluten and unhealthy fats. Serve them as they are – buttery smooth cookie dough pleasure! – or dehydrate them until they are crunchy on the outside, and warm & soft on the inside.

Notes

• If the cookies are still slightly moist inside, they will stay fresh for at least 10 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. • If the cookies are completely dry and crispy, you will be able to store them for at least 2 months in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. • Try experimenting with other types of ‘butter’ for different flavor variations. I’m thinking tahini, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts, pecans, cashews, macadamias, hazelnuts, brazil nuts, pine nuts, pistachios…
