Wet Ingredients
- 1/3 cup honey

Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for baking the cookies evenly.

- For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
- You can flatten the cookie balls slightly before baking if you prefer a thinner cookie.
