Almond Shortbread Cookies

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Simple, buttery Almond Shortbread Cookies made with just 6 ingredients – no oil, gluten, or refined sugar. The perfect easy Christmas (or anytime) cookie!

Almond Shortbread Cookies

THIS POST IS SPONSORED BY NIELSEN-MASSEY.

It is December. Pumpkin things are out. Cookies are in. And I am READY FOR IT.

Admittedly I did get a jumpstart on holiday cookie-ing with these snickerdoodles. But they were healthy and designed for breakfast, doesn’t count. Now it’s officially time for sweet and buttery, break out the cookie cutters, dip in dark chocolate, real deal cookie baking.

Almond Shortbread Cookies

Sugar cookies or shortbread? Personally I think there’s a place at the holidays for both. Sugar cookies are softer and more delicate, yummy on their own but designed to be decorated with colorful glazes and candy sprinkles. Whereas shortbread is snappier and more sophisticated, best eaten plain or with a simple chocolate coating to show off those scalloped edges.

In my house growing up the tradition was always sugar cookies of every shape with every color of frosting piped on to make bells and trees and reindeer and ornaments. Those days spent in the kitchen with my mom and sister are some of my best holiday memories, and stand out much more than any gifts.

These days I love making healthier versions of my favorite holiday cookies, so I can have all the fun times with family but skip the stomachache from eating too much dough and frosting. Last year I recreated my favorite sugar cookies, so this year it was time to tackle shortbread. And yes, this recipe will work for cutting into festive shapes and decorating with frosting and sprinkles too!

I was worried when I set out to develop this recipe that I wouldn’t be able to get the proper shortbread cookie SNAP without oil or refined sugar. Chewy is easy, but crispy vegan cookies can be tricky. Well was I ever wrong…

Almond Shortbread CookiesAlmond Shortbread CookiesAlmond Shortbread Cookies

These Almond Shortbread Cookies are golden on the outside and crispy all the way through. Snappy when you bite in, and stay snappy for days if you store them properly. Not dry or crumbly. Not made with any grains or oil. Not not the easiest cookie you will make all season – six ingredients, one bowl, 10 minutes to bake!

You will need:

  • almond flour
  • coconut flour
  • maple syrup (naturally sweetened christmas cookies ftw!)
  • coconut butter
  • almond extract
  • salt

And that’s it. Crazy, right?

Almond Shortbread Cookies

The almond + coconut flour combo makes them moist but not too moist, crunchy but not too crumbly. And there is only a quarter cup of maple syrup for the whole batch (18-20 cookies), so that counts as healthier if you ask me. I don’t recommend swapping the coconut butter for anything else, but if you must cashew butter (same amount) or coconut oil (a little less) would be your best alternatives.

With such a simple lineup, most of the flavor comes from the almond extract. You know that magical little bottle of liquid that smells like happiness and marzipan, and makes everything taste faintly reminiscent of wedding cake. I used Nielsen-Massey’s Pure Almond Extract for these cookies, because I trust the quality of their extracts and flavors. The flavor is strong and the ingredient list is short – made with just alcohol, pure bitter almond oil, and water. All Nielsen-Massey products are all natural, GMO-free, certified gluten-free, and allergy friendly too.

And even though this recipe calls for just a teaspoon of almond extract, if you love the flavor as much as I do a little extra won’t hurt.

Almond Shortbread Cookies

These cookies are better make a double batch GOOD. Bake now and again for Christmas GOOD. Only share with your very favorite people GOOD. And the perfect way to kick off your holiday cookie baking GOOD.

Description

Simple, buttery Almond Shortbread Cookies made with just 6 ingredients – no oil, gluten, or refined sugar. The perfect easy Christmas (or anytime) cookie!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (110g) almond flour
  • 1/3 cup (40g) coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup (80g) maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup (80g) coconut butter*
  • 1 tsp Nielsen-Massey Pure Almond Extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Optional: 1/2 cup (120g) melted dark chocolate chips for dipping

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. Whisk together the coconut butter, maple syrup, and almond extract.
  3. Add the coconut flour, almond flour, and salt. Mix/knead to form a moist ball of dough.
  4. Roll out to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into circles (using a cookie cutter or a mason jar lid works too!) and transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes at 350°F or until golden around the edges.
  6. Remove from the oven and cool. They are delicious warm, but if you are going to dip them in chocolate I recommend letting them cool completely first.
  7. Keep leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week.

Notes

* Coconut butter is really best here, but if you have so substitute I’d recommend runny cashew butter (same 1/3 cup) or coconut oil (reduce to 1/4 cup).

    Shortbread is seriously my fave. So simple, yet sooo GOOD when done right 😉 I developed a healthy recipe a couple years ago, but now I have a reason to try yours too, so they’ll be quite an abundance of shortbread cookies around here this December! BTW, I find that the maple syrup and coconut butter combo is magical for creating healthy “buttery” cookies 😉

      NEVER too many shortbread cookies🤗 Plus you could do some with glaze and some with chocolate and some just plain…so many options! Oh and I completely agree, they are some serious cookie magic together✨

    Would homemade cashew butter or Nutlex Coconut butter work better? When i make cashew butter though it doesn’t turn out runny? It’s quite firm and compacted – any suggestion?

      Homemade cashew butter does tend to be thicker than store-bought. Hmm what about tahini? That’s usually quite runny and would work here. Or you could thin out your cashew butter with come coconut oil instead.

    These look incredible Natalie and 6 ingredients, sign me up! I couldn’t agree more on the pumpkin out, cookies in, lol… I made FOUR batches of cookies for 2 new recipes yesterday I was testing and what do you know, coconut butter was in both recipes. However, both FAILED bahaha. I was so mad since I spent all day in the kitchen. When, I should have just waited and made these! The shortbread looks perfect and I love the addition of the chocolate, what a fabulous little touch of extra flavor, twist and color it adds. I can only imagine how delicious these are. I honestly have only been in the mood for making cookies ever since December 1st..it must be some kind of crazy December potion that floats in the air that makes us food bloggers just only want to make cookies. So, tell me, how many of these did you polish off in the first 24 hours?? Because honestly it looks like I’d eat half the batch in 15 minutes, LOL. They are gorgeous.

      Nooooooo!! Two fails in one day is rough, although I bet the “failed” leftovers were still pretty damn tasty even if they don’t make the cut😋 Coconut butter is some kinda cookie making magic, better than other nut butters I think for buttery richness but not making cookies too soft/chewy. Um let’s just say the batch was gone in 2 days lol. Hey it’s december after all😆

    Where is the option for more than 5 stars? These are amazing and such a unique addition to my cookie repertoire. I made the recipe exactly as written, but I slathered chocolate on top covering most of the cookie, unlike the delicate edging you did. Next time I may see if I can cover just half and make them look like black and white cookies, which I always admire visually but then find kind of tasteless and boring. I have to admit I was a little leery about this because coconut flour and I don’t always get along, but now I see that we can at least be on speaking terms and it can be used in recipes, although I still wouldn’t want to use it as the main flour. But Natalie, 18 cookies, really? I just shaped them by hand and only got eight! And they weren’t huge, just normal size.

    I had to look up shortbread since I wasn’t quite sure what it is. According to Wikipedia: “Shortbread is a traditional Scottish biscuit usually made from one part white sugar, two parts butter, and three parts oat flour.” Bet the Scots never thought to use coconut butter! Interesting that you chose almond butter instead of the oat flour, but I don’t think oat flour would have worked as well. I bought another bottle of almond extract since I will be making this a lot!

    I can’t go to Christmas cookie exchanges since the cookies wouldn’t be vegan and okay, I admit it, not that social, but these made a great Christmas season treat for me. (And I hear that at many exchanges, people don’t even bother baking, but just bring store bought! Like I can eat commercial cookies after making yours and some other favorite bloggers?) Thanks so much!

      I am so happy you liked them!! Ha I can totally relate to the coconut flour, I hated it for many years too but have slowly found ways to love it too. And my cookie cutter was pretty small so that will affect how many you get but you could definitely double the batch. Anyways, thanks for the awesome feedback and I am glad you found holiday cookies you CAN eat now too🤗

      Coconut cream and butter aren’t interchangeable, but maybe just go with a different frosting recipe like this one: https://www.cottercrunch.com/how-to-make-coconut-cream-vegan-frosting/

    I live in Hawaii, and I had trouble finding coconut flour and butter (limited grocers) . I substituted coconut oil and a combo of more almond flour with regular flour instead of coconut. The dough was stickier than if I had the original ingredients so I chilled it, and they turned out great! Wonderful texture and flavor. Thanks for the great recipe!!

    Cookies are great, but I’m a little confused. In the original recipe it says the yield is 18 cookies, rolled to ¼” before cutting with a 3” circular cookie cutter. Had I followed those guidelines, I probably would have had about 9 cookies! As is, I got 15 2 ½” cookies, rolled closer to ⅛” before cutting.

    I double checked all my measurements. Anyone else have a similar experience?

    Great cookies either way, I will be baking again for sure!!

It’s ice-cream-is-the-only-dessert-I-crave time It’s ice-cream-is-the-only-dessert-I-crave time of year, and this DAIRY-FREE ROCKY ROAD ICE CREAM always hits the spot🤎 My favorite mix-ins, creamy creamy no-churn choc base, and choose-your-own softserve or scoopable texture adventure🍦🍨 

INGREDIENTS
2 13.5oz cans coconut cream
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1 cup walnuts, chopped (or pecans/almonds)
1 cup vegan mini marshmallows
Optional: brownie chunks (recipe link in my stories)

Freeze the coconut cream in ice cube trays overnight. Blend the coconut cream cubes with cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt in a high speed blender until smooth. Add a little nondairy milk if needed to blend. In a pan or dish, layer ice cream > marshmallows, walnuts, chocolate chips, brownie chunks > repeat. Freeze for 30-60 minutes until scoop-able. It will be creamiest the day you make it, but will keep a few days in the freezer (remove 5-10 minutes to soften before eating)
