Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cups erythritol or other low-carb sweetener
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 cups macadamia nuts, roughly chopped
- 0.5 cups sugar-free white chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and erythritol until light and fluffy using a hand mixer.
Add in the vanilla extract and egg, and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing well after each addition, until you have a smooth dough.
Stir in the chopped macadamia nuts and, if using, the sugar-free white chocolate chips.
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each dough ball slightly with your palm or the back of a spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
