Ingredients
- - 2 cups almond flour 224g / 7.9 oz
- - 1/2 cup granulated erythritol 100g / 3.5 oz
- - 1 tsp ground cinnamon 2.6g / 0.09 oz
- - 1 tsp vanilla extract 4.9ml / 0.16 fl oz
- - 1 large egg
- - 1/4 cup unsalted butter softened (56g / 2 oz)
- - 1/4 tsp salt 1.5g / 0.05 oz
- - 1/2 tsp baking powder 2g / 0.07 oz
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, granulated erythritol, ground cinnamon, salt, and baking powder.
- Add the softened butter and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Crack the egg into the bowl.
- Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the ingredients on medium speed until a dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, chill it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
- Place the dough between two sheets of parchment paper and roll out to 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use a star-shaped cookie cutter to cut out the cookies and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
- The dough can be made ahead and kept refrigerated for up to 3 days before rolling and cutting.
- For a crispier cookie, roll the dough thinner and watch closely as baking times may be reduced.
- Ensure your ingredients, particularly the egg and butter, are at room temperature for the best dough consistency.
