Description

Delicious almond flour cookies sweetened with Lakanto for a low-carb treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup blanched almond flour
  • 3 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 3 tablespoons Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener (see notes)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F/176C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a silicone baking mat.
  2. Be sure your almond flour is at room temperature and not clumped. If you store it in the freezer, remove and let it warm up, then use a fork to break apart any lumps.
  3. Add softened butter, Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener, salt, and vanilla extract, and mix with a fork.
  4. Continue mixing until the mixture comes together into a loose dough.
  5. Use a teaspoon to measure out a heaping teaspoon of dough, then roll with your clean hands into 15 small balls.
  6. Use the fork to press the cookies down (either in straight lines or in a criss-cross pattern, whichever you prefer).
  7. Bake cookies for 9-10 minutes, or until they are starting to get firm.
  8. Leave cookies on the baking mat to cool for 5 minutes, or slightly longer. Remove them after 5 minutes if you prefer lighter cookies.
  9. Cookies can be stored in a container with a snap-tight lid or frozen.

Notes

  • Ensure that the almond flour is clump-free for the best texture.
  • If desired, adjust the baking time for texture preference (shorter for softer cookies, longer for firmer cookies).
