Frequently Asked Questions
What can I use instead of butter in this almond cookies recipe?
You can substitute butter with coconut oil or vegan butter for a dairy-free option. If you're looking for a healthier alternative, consider using unsweetened applesauce, though it may alter the texture slightly.
How should I store leftover almond cookies?
Store the almond cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer storage, you can freeze them in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months.
My cookie dough is too sticky; what should I do?
If your cookie dough is too sticky to work with, try adding a tablespoon of powdered sugar or finely ground almond flour to help bind it. Alternatively, refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes to make it easier to handle.
