Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Base
  • 1 cup Medjool Dates Ensure they're plump and soft, soaking if needed.
  • 1 cup Almond Flour Gluten-free alternative.
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup Use sparingly to avoid excess moisture.
For Flavor Enhancement
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Optional; can be substituted with vanilla extract.

Equipment

  • food processor
  • Baking Sheet
  • parchment paper

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by soaking pitted medjool dates in boiling water for about 5 minutes to soften them.
  2. While your dates are soaking, preheat your oven to 340 °F (170 °C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  3. In a food processor, combine the soaked dates and almond flour until the mixture turns into a crumbly dough.
  4. Roll the dough into approximately 10 balls and gently flatten each one to create a cookie shape.
  5. Bake the cookies in your preheated oven for 8 to 12 minutes, until the edges turn golden brown.
  6. Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes.
