Notes
If you are using almond butter with salt, you can omit the salt from the dough. Once it is stirred together you can taste it and add any salt if necessary.
Salt the batter until it is to your liking. Add this last so that you can control the amount used. Start with 1 teaspoon of salt if you are using unsalted almond butter and add more if necessary.
