Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 1.5 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Milk (dairy or non-dairy)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg, vanilla extract, and milk to the butter mixture. Beat until fully combined and smooth.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl to incorporate all ingredients evenly.

Step 6

Using a teaspoon or a small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.

Step 7

Use the back of a spoon or your fingers to gently flatten each dollop of dough into a small, round wafer shape.

Step 8

Bake the wafers in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the wafers to cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cooled wafers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
