Ingredients

• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 0.25 cups ground flaxseed
• 0.5 cup butter
• 0.33 cup erythritol
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup chopped mixed nuts (e.g., pecans, walnuts, almonds)
• 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground flaxseed, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat or in the microwave. Allow it to cool slightly.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then mix in the melted butter and vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Step 6

Stir in the chopped mixed nuts and sugar-free dark chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Divide the dough into 12 equal portions and shape each into a ball. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving enough space between each to allow for spreading.

Step 8

Gently flatten each ball of dough using the palm of your hand to form small discs.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Enjoy your Keto Nutty Pastry Delight as a satisfying snack or serve with your favorite low-carb beverage!
