Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, confectioners' sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon.

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla extract, and orange zest.

Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until a dough forms.

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls.

Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.

Flatten each ball slightly and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden.

Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack.
