Ingredients
- 2 C almond flour
- ¼ C coconut flour

- ½ C cold pastured butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Roll the dough into a long rectangle then use a knife or pizza cutter to cut the rectangle into 2 inch bars. Use a spatula to transfer the bars to a parchment lined cookie sheet. Bake for 12 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Let the cookies cool on a rack.

Just Do It
Sometimes you must do things that you don’t want to do. The best way to put it is to Just Do It. Most of the time, we hold ourselves back with our poor attitudes and lack of motivation. We find every excuse not to get things accomplished. We hold back.
Don’t get caught up in this thinking. You are so much better and all it takes is three little words. “Just Do It”. Accomplish great things. Pick yourself up and say “I can do this”. Get things done. Really…
Just Do It!
