Almond Butter Cookie Recipe for Acne-Prone Skin

916SKIN - ACNE TREATMENT CLINIC in CHICO, CA

If you have androgenic-type acne, swap out the peanut butter for a healthier alternative... almond butter! Acne sufferers need to limit their sugar intake, but if you're going to indulge, try almond butter cookies for a treat:

1 cup almond butter
1/2 cup sugar   1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon flour (wheat, oat, or almond)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or almond)
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon cardamom


  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Mix all ingredients together
  3. Spoon cookie dough on heavily greased cookie sheet
  4. Bake for approximately 10 minutes
If you have eliminated dairy to help control your acne, try cookies with a cup of herbal tea. Yum!
