Instructions

  • Measure all ingredients ahead of time and preheat the oven to 320°Fahrenheit (160°Celsius) to keep the process smooth.
  • Mix almond flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, butter, and egg yolk until a dough forms, then chill for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Roll ¼ of the dough into a log, cut into equal pieces, shape into crescents, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Bake at 320°Fahrenheit (160°Celsius) for 10 minutes until lightly golden, dust with vanilla protein powder while warm, and let cool completely to firm up.

Notes

These simple tricks make getting great results with your almond horn cookies even easier.
  • Chill the dough: If it feels too sticky to work with, chill it in the fridge for another 10-15 minutes.
  • Use parchment paper: This prevents the cookies from sticking to the baking sheet and makes cleanup easier.
  • Add a dash of cinnamon: If you like a little spice, sprinkle some cinnamon in the dough for an extra touch of warmth.
