Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoon Almond extract
- 0.5 cup Erythritol or other sugar substitute
- 0.25 cup Sliced almonds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir to mix the dry ingredients well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, almond extract, and egg until well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. It should be slightly sticky.
Fold in the erythritol (or preferred sugar substitute) and sliced almonds, ensuring they're evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough onto the lined baking sheet, spacing each cookie about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each cookie with the back of a spoon or your hand, as they won't spread much during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your sugar-free almond cookies with a warm beverage or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
