Finally got this recipe tweaked to perfection!!! Primal cookies:

1 1/4 cup Almond Flour/Meal
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (optional)
1/4 teaspoon Cinnamon (essential!)
1 large Egg
1/4 cup Honey
1/4 cup chopped Pecans

Stir ALL ingredients together until smooth.
Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a really well buttered/greased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart from eachother. They really like to stick to the pan, so use parchment paper if you have it. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes or until desired doneness. Allow to cool before removing from pan.

These are soft, fluffy, and chewy around the edges. Also great with chocolate chips!

I make about nine 4-inch-diameter cookies per batch, and the nutrition information per cookie is:

I just tried this recipe today. These cookies are beyond sexy! Thanks for sharing!

Edit: Instead of pecans, I added some chunks of extra dark (91%) cacao chocolate for more om nom nomz!

Thanks - I tried those yesterday and they were very tasty. I normaly try to avoid using baking soda, has anyone tried without it ?

How many cookies does one batch make?

What brand of almond meal do you use? Are the almonds blanched?

Yay!!! I need a "perfect" cookie recipe for christmas. Last christmas was a disaster, as all of the recipes I tried yielded a really REALLY chewy, dense yucky cookie. I was longing for something fluffy and soft and melty... hope this is it!

I made these last night and they turned out great! I made 8 big cookies - next time will try with chocolate chips. I used unblanched almond meal (the kind Trader Joe's sells) and walnuts instead of pecans.

I baked them on parchment paper since I was alerted to the fact that they could be sticky -- glad I did. I had a little problem with storing the leftover ones. I put them one on top of the another in a glass container with a lid -- they are now all stuck together, so we will eat them with a fork.

Very tasty recipe - thanks!

Made these last night for the GF and my son. Figured I'd have a few left over today...I was wrong. Excellent recipe, although perhaps too tasty...
