Cookie Dough Ingredients
- 4 oz salted butter (1 stick, cold, cut into pieces)
- 1 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup Joy Filled Eats Sweetener (or alternative sweetener as noted)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), preparing it for baking the cookies evenly.
- Mix Dough: In a food processor, combine the cold salted butter, almond flour, and sweetener. Pulse the ingredients together until the dough is well incorporated and forms a cohesive mixture.
- Add Flavors (Optional): At this stage, add any desired flavor options such as vanilla extract, cinnamon, or chocolate chips to customize your cookies.
- Form Dough Balls: Scoop the dough into 24 equal-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, ensuring space between each for spreading.
- Bake Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 14-18 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned, indicating they are perfectly baked.
- Cool Completely: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet before serving to set their texture.
Notes
- You can use other low-carb sweeteners such as erythritol or monk fruit sweetener as alternatives to Joy Filled Eats Sweetener.
- For added flavor, consider mixing in vanilla extract, almond extract, or spice like cinnamon before shaping your cookies.
- If desired, add mix-ins such as sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra texture.
- Ensure the butter is cold to help the dough hold together and prevent spreading during baking.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
