Introduction
I've found that almond flour is one of the easiest ways to keep the flavor of a "regular" cookie without the added effects of using purely white flour to make cookies. There's nothing worse than a cookie that tastes like fake sweetener and loses it's flavor and moisture because it's a "healthy" version.I make my own almond flour, because it's a lot cheaper than buying it, and you can easily make it, too.
