- 1 stick (8 tbsp) unsalted butter, slightly softened but still chilled
- 1/2 cup sugar-free brown sugar substitute
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp almond extract
- 2 1/2 cups finely ground almond flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- Optional: sugar-free granulated sweetener for rolling
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer or a large bowl with a hand mixer, beat the slightly softened butter and sugar-free brown sugar substitute until light and fluffy.
- Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract, beating until well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, beating until a thick dough forms and everything is well combined.
- Form the dough into round disc shapes. If desired, you can roll them in additional sugar-free granulated sweetener.
- Place the formed cookies on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are at least 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. For chewier cookies, remove them closer to 7 minutes.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For chewier cookies, remove them closer to 7 minutes.
- Roll dough balls in sugar-free granulated sweetener for added texture if desired.
