- Pinch of salt to taste

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Stir almond butter to make sure oil is well incorporated. Measure out almond butter, brown sugar, egg white, vanilla, and additional salt if desired into electric mixer bowl.
- Using paddle attachment, mix 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down sides occasionally until everything is incorporated and mixture looks doughy and less sticky. If mixing by hand, make sure to mix well so oil doesn’t separate.
- Wet your hands to keep the dough from sticking and roll the mixture into 12 even balls flatten and place on baking sheet. Bake for 11-13 minutes until edges are slightly darker and bottoms start to crisp up. Cool on a cooling rack.
- Once cool, smear the center with a scant teaspoon of Felix lingonberry jam and place together like a sandwich.
