- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 100 grams Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and natural sweetener together until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the mixture, continuing to mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until a dough forms.
Fold in the chopped walnuts into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Gently flatten each scoop of dough with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes.
Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.
