• 1 cup almond flour

• 6 Tbsp. arrowroot (or tapioca) flour

• 1/2 tsp. baking powder

• 1/4 tsp. sea salt

• 2 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Combine the almond flour, arrowroot flour, baking powder and sea salt in a medium sized mixing bowl, and stir to combine. In a separate bowl add the egg and vanilla and whisk to combine. Slowly whisk the raw honey and coconut oil into the egg mixture until combined.
