Once baked, these cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Make-Ahead/Freezer Instructions
As with many other cookie recipes, I usually make a batch of dough, then bake half and freeze the other half.
When you want a cookie, just bake the frozen dough by adding 2-4 minutes onto the cook time. These are perfect to have on hand for those nights when you just need a little something sweet!

Is the 1/4 cup coconut oil in solid form or liquid?
How many carbs and calories are in these? I made these lastnight, I used 2 cups of Almond flour and 1 cup Almond flour/meal and 1 teaspoon of vanilla 1 teaspoon of Almond. They turned out amazing. I just want to know what the carbs and calories are please.
Is there a substitute for coconut oil I can use? Not a fan of it’s taste.

Can Stevia be substituted for the brown sugar?
These are the best almonds cookies ever! Thank you for sharing this recipe!! Can’t wait to make them again!
These are by far the fluffiest and delicious almond flour cookies I’ve made yet 🙂
“pinterest success” I did change it a bit:
I used 1/4 Cup of earth balance soy butter instead
and 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
and added 1 cup of toasted coconut
and cooked for 15 minutes
What’s the macros? I’ve made these. So good but have had 4 today on a keto diet… How many carbs fats and protien per 1?
I don’t follow a keto diet so I don’t know. I would say these are not keto-friendly as they have sugar.
These are Delicious ! Thank you for the great recipe ! How many carbs in each cookie ?
Loved these. I also only used 1/2 cup brown sugar, and accidentally used 1/2TB baking soda, which made them light and fluffy! I’ll do that with intention next time!
Absolutely delicious!!!!
For those wanting a low carb version, Sukrin Gold is a sugar free brown sugar and Lily’s makes sugar free chocolate chips…both awesome!
How many carbs are in these cookies they are awesome !!!
Can you use ghee instead of the butter and coconut oil?
