Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup erythritol or preferred low-carb sweetener
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and erythritol with an electric mixer until creamy and well combined.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula until a dough forms.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each ball.
Using the back of a fork, gently flatten each ball to about 1/2 inch thick in a crisscross pattern.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the biscuits are lightly golden around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your low-carb ginger biscuits with a cup of tea or coffee!
