Almond cookies or almond biscuits, also called badam biscuits are the simple cookies recipe made with almonds, flour, butter and Sweetener. The highlight of this recipe is that it is Eggless.

These are such a royal Cookies that you can serve them to your special guests. Also you can gift on special occasions or festivals like diwali and Christmas.

HEALTHY ALMOND COOKIES

We have tried to make these Cookies healthy by replacing those ingredients which are not deemed healthy.

Though all purpose flour could be used but we have added whole wheat flour.

Likewise refined sugar is replaced with cane sugar. However you can add brown sugar or powdered jaggery.

Oats are also made part of these cookies. Oats not only made them healthy but provided a grainy texture and you feel like having cardboard in your mouth. Lol.

VEGAN & GLUTENFREE OPTIONS

This recipe has butter and milk which are non vegan. But you can easily replace butter with almond butter or some vegan butter.

Also, milk can be substituted with almond milk or some plant based milk.

Likewise, for gluten intolerants, whole wheat flour can be dropped and almond flour can be used.

STORAGE OF ALMOND COOKIES

These cookies must be stored in an airtight container and remains good for about a month.

But do keep in mind that before storing the cookies in airtight, let them cool completely first. If you put the warm cookies, they will turn soggy.

1. Put sugar along with 1/4 cup of almonds in a grinder jar and grind them to a powder.
2. Add butter and grinded mixture into a bowl.
3. Whisk them with electric beater. However you can use wire whisk also.

5. Now add wheat flour, oats, chopped almonds, salt, baking soda and almond essence.
6. Whisk them again so that everything get mixes together well.
7. Now by using your hand, start bringing everything together so that a dough can be formed. Remember, only bring the mixture together and don’t knead it.

NOTE

1. Don’t grind almonds in one go but blitz by doing stop go stop method, otherwise almonds will begin to release oil instead of turning only powder.
2. If using salted butter, then skip adding additional salt.
3. If you don’t have almond essence, you can add vanilla essence or cardamom powder.
