Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams unsalted butter
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams granulated erythritol sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter until smooth and creamy.
Add the granulated erythritol sweetener to the butter and beat until the mixture is fluffy and well-combined.
Mix in the vanilla extract and salt, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the butter mixture.
Gradually sift in the all-purpose flour, folding it into the butter mixture until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out the dough to about 0.5 cm (1/4 inch) thickness.
Using a biscuit cutter, cut the dough into desired shapes and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Using a fork, lightly prick the top of each biscuit to prevent bubbling during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the biscuits are lightly golden around the edges.
Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container for up to a week to maintain freshness.
