Almond Cookies with Spiced Apple Slices 

Easy Recipe:
Spiced apples:
1 cup thinly sliced apples
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg powder
1/4 teaspoon ginger powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Cookies:
1 cup almonds
3 tablespoons maple syrup
3 tablespoons melted coconut oil
To prepare the apples: toss them with the spices and maple syrup. Put them in your oven at a very low temperature, or in a dehydrator, for an hour or until they have softened.

Check often to make sure they don't dry out or burn - you want them warm, soft and gooey. 

To make the cookies: grind the almonds into flour in a food processor or blender. Throw the almond flour into a bowl and stir in the maple syrup and coconut oil until you get a sticky, crumbly mixture.

If it's not sticking together, add some more maple syrup. If it's too wet, add some ground flax seeds or more almond flour. Spread this the cookie dough evenly onto a cookie sheet, about 1/2 inch thick, and put in the fridge or freezer until solid, an hour or two. Cut into cookies.

Spoon some warm apple slices onto your cookies and dig in!
