How to Make Almond Flour Banana Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step is crucial for achieving that perfect golden-brown finish on your cookies!

  3. Add in the large eggs, mixing well until fully incorporated.

  5. Fold in the crushed salted peanuts gently.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a lined baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes or until they turn golden brown.
  8. Cool the cookies on a wire rack before serving.
