Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup erythritol (granulated sugar substitute)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 unit large egg
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped macadamia nuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and erythritol until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and egg to the mixture, beating until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the chopped macadamia nuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your sugar-free classic macadamia cookies!
