Notes
Make sure that you are using blanched almond flour not almond meal.
Almond flour browns and cooks faster that's why I'm cooking them at a lower temperature. However, your oven may vary so you can check the cookies earlier and experiment with the cooking time. Or experiment with the temperature.
Definitely let these cookies cool for longer than normal. That will help them hold their shape.
