Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sucralose sweetener, and salt until well combined. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the softened butter, egg white, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Using a fork or your hands, mix until a smooth dough forms. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Place the dough in the freezer to chill and firm up for 15 minutes. This will make it easier to handle.

04

Step

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

05

Step

Remove the dough from the freezer. Using a teaspoon, scoop out small portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.

06

Step

Place a piece of plastic wrap on the bottom of a flat-bottomed glass or measuring cup. Gently flatten each dough ball with the glass until they are about 1/4 inch thick. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. (20 minutes)

08

Step

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For a richer flavor, try using browned butter.
A touch of almond extract can enhance the almond flavor.
Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
You can add sugar-free chocolate chips to the dough for a chocolate version.
