These 3 Ingredients Dairy-Free and Gluten-Free Almond Cookies are so simple, fast to make and delicious – they are a must try for any almond lovers! Because easy and quick Cookies recipes is something that everyone should have in their recipe book!
Passover is still ongoing and like I explained in one of my last article, I am avoiding using any leavened ingredients and most cereals. Using Almond Meal to replace any type of Flour is a great tip, whether it is for Passover or if you are after a Gluten Free Recipe. It makes any baked good light and moist!
This recipe was inspired by one of my Aunt’s Passover Recipe.
It must be one of the easiest baking recipe ever! Even though I love complex and challenging recipes, it is also nice to be able to whip something under 30 minutes…
You really don’t need to be an expert baker to realise this recipe, it is accessible to absolutely every baking level!

You can also choose to customise or add more ingredients if you want, but they will taste absolutely delicious with the basic 3 ingredients too!
