Almond Cinnamon Cookies
Makes 24 cookies (1 1/2 tbsp each). As a special treat sandwich two cookies together with a Frosting filling!
Ingredients
Bowl #1
150 g almond flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp Vietnamese
Cinnamon
1/2 tsp sea salt
Bowl #2
5 oz (one stick + 2 tbsps) unsalted butter, melted but not hot
1/2 cup Granular Swerve (equivalent to 1/2 cup sugar, see Resources)
1 large egg
Granular Swerve is used for a bit of crunch.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Add ingredients to bowl #1, stir with a whisk, and set aside. Microwave butter in bowl #2 until it is just barely melted. Add sugar and egg and mix with a hand mixer (2 beaters) until blended. Then add ingredients from bowl #1 to bowl #2 and mix again.
Line a baking sheet with parchment or use a silicone coated pan and place the cookies with a cookie scoop and bake for about 10 minutes. While they may look like they're not done they do firm-up while cooling. Keep the baking time short, so that moisture is retained and your cookies are soft, but long enough so they are dark brown at the edge. Keeps well when refrigerated.
