Making these Gluten-Free Almond Cookies is simple. Follow these steps to create your tasty treats:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the egg, almond extract, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until a dough forms.
4. Chill Dough: For best results, chill the dough in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes. This will help the cookies hold their shape.
5. Shape Cookies: Use a tablespoon to scoop the dough and roll it into small balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
6. Top with Almonds: If desired, lightly press sliced almonds onto the tops of each cookie for added texture and presentation.
7. Bake: Place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. They should be light golden brown around the edges.
8. Cool Off: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
