There was no need to add ‘’gluten free’’ in the title because you all know all my recipe here are gluten free. Sometimes I just feel the need to brag ok? Especially during the holiday season where it seems to be impossible to eat a whole food plant based gluten free diet. I mean, try to match this in your head; holidays and gluten free, whole food plant based. No match. No match, at all. But these gluten-free almond butter Christmas cookies are an exception. No need to brag again, but they are very simple to make….just sayin’.
I also think they are extremely cute! Just too adorable too eat. But no worries I got over that and ate them all myself in a few days….No regrets. Oh and yes, they are also great to make with kids. I enjoyed them with a delicious cup of golden milk. Yum! And one spoiler. They’re not just delicious for Christmas… I mean different shape, different holiday, right? I see cute heart shaped Valentine cookies.
