Galletas de manzana con harina de almendras
Ingredientes
- 2 ½ tazas de Harina de almendra - (nota 1)
- 3 cucharadas de Jarabe de arce - (nota 2)
- 1 taza de Grated Apples - (note 3) about 1 large apple, unpeeled
- 1 cucharadita de Extracto de manzana - (nota 4)

Instrucciones para la impresión en alta definición
- Precalienta el horno a 180 °C (350 °F). Cubre una bandeja para hornear con papel pergamino y engrásala ligeramente con aceite de coco. Reserva.
- Choose a flavorful apple like Braeburn or Granny Smith. Using a hand grater, on the largest setting, grate the apple until you get 1 cup of grated apple
- Chop the pecans on a wooden board.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir almond flour, maple syrup, grated apples, apple extract, and cinnamon.
- Stir with a rubber spatula until the dough forms. It should be sticky but easy to roll into a ball – not runny or too wet. If too dry, add a bit of water to stick everything together. If too wet, add a bit more almond flour to form dough.
- Fold in the chopped pecans, and gently stir to incorporate without breaking them.
- Divide la masa en 8 bolas. La masa es pegajosa, así que quizás quieras engrasarte las manos para darles forma.
- Place each dough ball onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving an inch between each, and press the top slightly if you want to flatten the cookies. If you like, press a raw almond in the center top of each cookie, and press lightly to imprint. These cookies do not spread very much as they bake, which means the shape you give them now is almost what you get after baking them.
- Hornea las galletas en la rejilla central del horno durante 16-18 minutos a 180 °C (350 °F) hasta que los bordes estén dorados.
- Let them cool down for 15 minutes on the cookie sheet, then slide a spatula under each cookie and cool down on a wire rack for 1 hour.

Ingredientes y sustituciones
Solo necesitas 6 ingredientes sencillos para preparar esta receta. Aquí te explicamos cómo elegirlos y sustituirlos.

- Harina de almendra – This ingredient creates the primary structure of the cookie and gives it a soft, moist texture. It also lends a rich, nutty flavor. Using almond meal also works, but other flours like coconut flour or wheat flour won’t work in this recipe.
- Jarabe de arce – Maple syrup provides the main source of sweetness for the cookies and helps with the binding of the dough. You can also use other liquid sweeteners like agave syrup or apple syrup to boost the apple flavor.
- Grated Apples – The grated apples add natural sweetness, moisture, and a tender texture to the dough. A firm, flavorful apple variety like Braeburn, Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Jonagold works best because they hold their shape well during baking.
- Extracto de manzana – The extract ensures a more intense apple flavor in the finished cookies. Without it, the flavor of the baked apples can be subtle and might get lost. You can skip this ingredient if you don’t have it, but the cookies won’t be as apple-forward.
- Canela – This spice adds a warm, sweet aroma and a subtle depth of flavor that complements the apples perfectly. A pumpkin pie spice blend also works nicely here.
- Nueces pecanas – The pecans bring a lovely crunchy texture and a buttery, nutty flavor to each bite. Chopped walnuts, chopped almonds, or shredded coconut are also fine additions to the dough.
How to Make Almond Flour Apple Cookies




Consejos de repostería de Carine
Permítanme compartirles algunos consejos más para lograr una galleta perfecta.
- Boost Apple Flavor – The natural flavor of the apple can be subtle in these cookies because the nutty almond flour is quite strong. If you want the taste to truly stand out, I recommend adding the apple extract. It makes all the difference!
- Grate Your Apples – Don’t skip this step or use chopped apples instead. The moisture and natural juice from the grated apple are essential for binding the almond flour and maple syrup together, which gives the dough the perfect sticky consistency.
- Swap Your Syrup – For an even more delicious apple flavor, try using apple syrup in place of the maple syrup. It’s a simple change that adds another layer of fruity taste to every bite.







Absolutely delicious. I didn’t push mine down enough, leaving them big and round, so they’re a little bit doughy in the middle. But they’re still tasty and nice to eat. I will definitely make these again. I’ll just make sure to flatten them a little bit.
I agree, if they are too thick the moisture of the apples keep the cookie soft. I hope it gets even better next time.
Looking forward to making for my GF husband.
In notes 2 want to confirm that I can delete maple syrup and sub 3 tablespoon applesauce ..thank you
Yes, it’s what the note 2 means. You can swap maple syrup for applesauce but the cookies are softer, and less crispy.
My name Ladda, I never bake before and I live in Thailand, I don’t have butter or flour but I have almond nuts. It’s worked very well for me. Thank you for sharing your beautiful and healthy baking.
Thank you Ladda and welcome here!
Thank you!!! Delicious!!! Your recipe is wonderful. I put a piece of apple on top, some butter and brown sugar. My contribution, with all my love✨✨✨✨
That sounds delicious ! thanks for sharing with me.
Which brand of apple extract do you use?
If you click on the blue link where it says apple extract it open my product on Amazon. The brand is Vanilla Bean Kings store.
I made this cookie for my book club ladies because one of the ladies is dairy free. I thought they were kind of bland. I would have wanted a sweeter tasting cookie. I used a granny apple and could not find apple extract so left it out. This would be a great cookie for breakfast with coffee. If I make it again, I would use a sweeter apple or up the amount of maple syrup.
That’s why the recipe calls for apple extract! It’s the ingredient that boost the apple flavor, apples themself will never add much flavor to cookies, unless you had a ton, which you can’t in a cookie. If you add more maple syrup, you will mask the apple flavor even more, and the batter will spread too much. To up the sweeteness, you need a crystal sweetener like sugar, brown sugar, or coconut sugar.
Recipe looks fabulous. Can you use date syrup to replace maple syrup?
It should work, date syrup will make them a bit darker.
Esto funcionó exactamente como está escrito, ¡gracias!
