A delicious cookie that's not too sweet. Dunk in tea or coffee for a nice treat.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1 cup Almonds, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon Salt

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly oil or coat two large baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • Whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, almonds, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, canola oil, eggs, honey, and vanilla, and beat on medium speed until well blended, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
  • At low speed, gradually beat in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  • Place the 3 tablespoons granulated sugar on a plate or in a shallow bowl. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and coat evenly with the sugar. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space in between. Flatten the cookies gently with the back of a fork.
  • Bake for about 8 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and cool for 5 minutes before serving. Repeat with the remaining batter. 

Notes & Suggestions

If the batter gets too sticky, chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.
