How to Make Linzer Cookies

  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  4. Add the softened butter and beat until it resembles sandy breadcrumbs.
  5. Incorporate the cold egg and vanilla bean paste, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
  6. Roll the dough on a floured surface to about ¼ inch thickness and cut out shapes.

  9. Dust cooled cookies with powdered sugar, spread jam on half, and sandwich together.
