CRISPY ALMOND BUTTER THINS (COOKIES)



Crispy Almond Butter Thins (Cookies) image

Crispy, buttery and so delicious! -- plan ahead the dough needs to chill for a minimum of 3 hours or up to 3 days --- the success of this cookie will depend on the quality of butter that you use so purchase the best! Since the dough is very thick I suggest to use a stand mixer for mixing --- for *CHRISTMAS* coat in coloured sugar, also haven't tried it as yet but I plan on adding in some finely chopped candied maraschino cherries or dried fruit to the cookie batter for Christmas, so you might want to give that a try! --- servings is only estimated.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor or high-powered blender to get the smoothest almond butter possible. This will help the crisps turn out evenly golden brown and crispy.
  • If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can make almond butter by hand. Simply roast the almonds in a 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and fragrant. Then, transfer the almonds to a bowl and mash them with a fork or potato masher until they reach a smooth consistency.
  • Be sure to use a good quality almond butter that is made with 100% almonds. Avoid almond butter that contains added sugars, oils, or salt.
  • If you want to make the crisps even crispier, you can bake them for a few minutes longer. Just keep an eye on them so that they don't burn.
  • These crisps can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. However, they are best enjoyed fresh.

Conclusion:

Almond butter crisps are a delicious and healthy snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking.
