Important Note
These cookies are reduced in sugar or sugar-free depending on the sweetener used, but they are not “zero calorie” or automatically suitable for all medical diets. People with diabetes should choose sweeteners carefully and enjoy in moderation as part of a balanced eating plan.
Ingredients
1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup almond flour
½ cup sugar-free sweetener (erythritol or monk fruit blend)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Additions
½ teaspoon cinnamon
A pinch of salt (if using unsalted butter)
Sugar-free chocolate chips
Lemon or orange zest for a fresh flavor
Crushed nuts for texture
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a bowl, beat the softened butter until smooth and creamy.
Add the sweetener and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
Stir in almond flour until a soft dough forms.
Scoop small portions and shape into cookies.
Place on the baking tray and gently flatten with a fork.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are
lightly golden.
Allow to cool completely before serving.
Tips for Success
Do not overbake; cookies should stay soft for best texture.
Let the dough chill for 15–20 minutes if it feels too soft.
Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Freeze for longer storage and enjoy anytime.
