Gluten-Free Brown Butter Almond Cookies

Ingredients:
ďż˝ 1 cup almond flour

ďż˝ 1/2 cup unsalted butter (browned)

ďż˝ 1/2 cup granulated sugar

ďż˝ 1/4 cup brown sugar

ďż˝ 1 large egg

ďż˝ 1 tsp vanilla extract

ďż˝ 1/2 tsp baking soda

ďż˝ 1/4 tsp salt

ďż˝ 1/2 cup chopped almonds (optional)

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350�F (175�C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Brown the butter: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue cooking, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
3. Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
4. Combine sugars and butter: In a large bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and browned butter until well combined. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
5. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If using, fold in the chopped almonds.
6. Scoop and bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball slightly with your hand.
7. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
