Ingredients

• 200 grams almond flour
• 100 grams erythritol
• 100 grams unsalted butter
• 1 whole large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 100 grams blanched almond flour
• 50 grams erythritol (for almond paste)
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 whole large egg (for filling)
• 0.5 teaspoon almond extract
• 12 whole almond halves

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix together 200 grams almond flour, 100 grams erythritol, and salt. Rub in the 100 grams unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until the dough forms.

Step 4

For the almond filling, in a separate bowl, combine 100 grams blanched almond flour, 50 grams erythritol, lemon zest, and almond extract. Add in the remaining egg (reserving a small amount for glazing) and mix until a cohesive paste forms.

Step 5

Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into balls and flatten into discs.

Step 6

Scoop about a tablespoon of almond filling onto half of the discs, then cover each with another disc, sealing the edges by pinching them together.

Step 7

Place an almond half on top of each koek. Brush the remaining beaten egg over each koek for a glossy finish.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for about 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 9

Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve at room temperature and enjoy your keto-friendly Gevulde Koek!
