Have you ever wanted to make one of my recipes but couldn’t (easily) find one or more of the ingredients you need?
Well, you are in luck! I am super excited to announce that I have partnered with Grubkitto launch an Everyday Maven Healthy Dessert Sampler Kit!
If you aren’t familiar, aGrubkit is an eco-friendly packaged box of pre-measured, non-perishable recipe ingredients accompanied by easy-to-follow cooking instructions that will help you pulltogethera fabulous dish in (in this case – FIVE fabulous desserts!) no time.
One of the things I love most about GrubKit is that ingredients are organic whenever possible and always of the highestquality, which is something that really matters to me.Click here to learn more about how GrubKit works.
My healthy dessert sampler is packed with almost all of the ingredients to make five of my most popular dessert recipes (including this bonus Almond Cookie recipe I am posting today!).
Vegan {Triple} Almond Cookie Recipe {Paleo, Vegan, Gluten-Free} (scroll down)
Mini Vanilla Macaroons {Paleo, Gluten-Free}
Whole Wheat Gingerbread Biscotti{Dairy-Free}
NOTES:
- Blanched almond flour(finely ground blanched and skinless almonds) is different thanalmond meal(ground raw almonds with their skins on).My two favorite brands of blanched almond meal are Bob’s Red Mill and Honeyville. Note: If you live in the Seattle area and are a Costco member, they are having an amazing deal on 3-pound bags of Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour (less than$20).

I used homemade almond meal and the cookies did not stay together. Any suggestions?
Taste is delicious 😋 Thanks!

Hi Carol – almond meal performs differently than almond flour (as the skins are still on and it is more coarse and homemade can be more damp). Glad that the taste was still good!!

Ohhh, I just made these and they are AMAZING!! It’s all I can do not to eat the whole batch. I substituted 4 tablespoons of Yacon syrup for the maple, and upped the vanilla to 1 tablespoon. So delicious, thank you! I’ve tried tons of vegan cookie recipes, and these will definitely be my go to from now on 🙂

I am dying to try some Yacon syrup!! Do you sub 1:1 for maple and honey or also dry sweeteners? So glad you liked the cookies 🙂

Do you think I could use agave nectar instead of maple syrup???
Reply
- EverydayMaven says
Yes, you should be able to sub agave for the maple syrup but I think the flavor will be very different.

Fine. I’m excited to try these cookies, making them this weekendReply

I’ve made these cookies twice now and they are excellent! The second time, I doubled the recipe (except for the amount of almond extract) and baked at 350 for close to 20 minutes. The almond flavor was a bit more than I preferred the first time and we love our cookies crunchy! Be sure to push the almond slices into the cookie a bit, because otherwise they can fall off. I highly recommend this recipe! This double batch is going in the freezer for those unexpected holiday guests!! I’m hoping they freeze well! Thanks for the great recipe!!

Hi Vera,
