Saffron Almond Flour Cookies

Saffron Almond Flour Cookies

Ingredients (Makes ~18 cookies)

  • 2 cups Saffron Almond Flour (finely ground, blanched)
  • ½ cup sugar (or coconut sugar for a deeper flavor)
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg (room temperature)
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or almond extract for extra nuttiness)

Optional add-ins:

  • ¼ cup chopped dark chocolate or chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup chopped pistachios or almonds

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In another bowl, whisk egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
  • Combine wet and dry ingredients until a soft dough forms. Stir in any add-ins.


Step 2: Shape & Bake

  • Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll into balls.
  • Place on baking sheet and flatten slightly with your hand or the back of a spoon.
  • Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden.


Step 3: Cool & Serve

  • Let cookies cool on the tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a rack.
  • Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.


✨ These Saffron Almond Flour cookies are buttery, nutty, and melt-in-your-mouth — perfect plain, dipped in chocolate, or paired with saffron tea.
