Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well to remove any lumps.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the large egg, heavy cream, stevia sweetener, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms. Do not over-mix.
Lightly dust a clean surface with almond flour and turn the dough out onto it.
Gently knead the dough a few times and then pat it into a rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
Using a sharp knife, cut the rectangle into 8 equal squares or use a biscuit cutter for round biscuits.
Place the biscuits onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until the tops are golden brown.
Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with your choice of tea or coffee.
